Did you happen to watch/listen to the SpaceX stream? They did an interesting thing in that they had the Starship itself simulated to have something like 100 missing heat treated tiles. I mean if it survived I would have been amazed because it seems like they more or less were planning on burning this bad boy up

Yes, I had it going at 2x speed.

I don't recall hearing anything about missing tiles

It seem like the space ship was tumbling, which did not seem planned.
