What is this?

One of two machinery spaces.

Satellite update.

Actually, it think that theres no point in capturing images everyday of that place, specially if it doesnt show anything different, not least because its so blurry so we cant see any minor progress that comes out of it.

Where did you get the idea that they are "capturing images everyday of that place"?

 

[Bhurki]

if it doesnt show anything different

But it is different, look again.

But it is different, look again.

I am waiting for some clear shots

they could be coming soon we have seen so many blurred ones

we will then make a timeline estimate based on that

 

[Intrepid]

1st thing we will see: position and number of aircraft elevators
2nd thing we will see: position and number of catapults
3rd thing we will see: general layout of the flight deck

Interessting times to come.

Two large machinery spaces: will it have two islands with two stacks?

I think that can be pretty confidently ruled out at this stage... If they chose such a significant deviation in terms of their island configuration we surely would be aware of it by now.

I expect one island because of the reason You wrote. But I would not be surprised if 003 get two islands.
