You Strangler cans
Chris Bergin, managing editor NASASpaceFlight, published on its Twitter channel video travel outlandish designs at the launch site in Boca Chica. Resembling a giant tarantula with many legs a mechanism called a " Can Crusher " (you Strangler cans). NASA uses are since 2011, but this version is unique — it is designed specifically for SpaceX.
The essence masher reflected in its name — a device used to create high load test components of space rockets. In particular, fuel tanks, which are inherently far removed from the aluminum cans with carbonated drinks. For the disposal of the latter is used mechanical masher that taper capacity – the principle of cosmic counterparts about the same. Engineers use a masher to check for durability, as well as to test new designs. They try to make the rocket easier, why look for new options bends buildings, which then need to be tested. "Can Crusher" designed to test missiles Starship B7.1 and was shown to the public for the first time.
