There have been many questions and concerns about the water-cooled steel plate that is planned to be installed under the OLM. I’ll go over some details about it in this thread and maybe ease some of the concerns. There will be some speculation in this towards the end. (1/n) 
The term “water-cooled plate” is a bit misleading for people who don’t understand how the system will function. Many may relate this system to a closed-loop water loop used on some high-end gaming computers or the liquid intercooler system used in high-performance vehicles. (2/n)
While water will run through the plates, the main cooling effect comes from holes that will “leak” water onto the surface of the steel. This is required as it cools the metal surface and absorbs energy from the plume at the same time. There are other advantages as well. (3/n)
(1/10) Hey #StarshipAddicts! If you didn't get a chance to check out the latest @RGVaerialphotos Flyover review livestream then you missed some interesting details about new progress around #Starbase. Here's a summary of last weeks top finds. A lot of info in this image alone!
(2/10) CH4 Storage Tanks:
The tanks shown in this picture are assumed to be the additional Methane storage tanks needed in order to fully fuel a #Starship/#SuperHeavyBooster for orbital launches and also suborbital WDR / Cryo testing on the new staging pads.

Finally! Ive been waiting for this thing to show up for 2 months. Searched high and low in @RGVaerialphotos photos 8 weeks straight hoping I would see signs of it before anyone else.

Before we start:
I had a feeling this would happen. It sucks to have to skip ahead in the Orbital Launch Mount series cuz its going to be impossible to keep the whole thing in one thread now. Might have to come up with a better way of organizing this stuff.
One more thing!

Should I post this entire explanation at one time? Or would yal rather see them as I finish each page?
I'll let yal decide while I grab some food. @RGVaerialphotos unexpected post forced me to skip lunch for this.
*FYI The first option will probably contain more errors*
