    I would pitch money at SpaceX for them to buy those, name them Jeff and Dick, and absolutely demolish them with fairings. Just smash the boats to smithereens.
    EDIT - but only if they got everdayastronaut or nasaspaceflight to film it from like 10 different angles.

    Wasn't it just basically a fitment test?

    That was my understanding. The stack was just a test, neither vehicle was actually ready for launch.

    Yeah, it’s my understanding too it was a fitment test. Some questions still hanging out there including static firing for both stages and completion of the TPS. Oh, and there’s the whole FAA EIS still floating around…

    There's also a good bit of pad infrastructure (like a fueling arm for starship) that needs to be built.
