This test article was put together in a few weeks by a company that builds water tanks. It should fly within the next couple of months. Musk says another test article that can make it to orbit should be ready by June. I think it’s being built by SpaceX and shouldn’t have all the wrinkles. The one pictured will probably go no higher than 15,000 feet.

The final production version will be a third taller and it’s just the second stage.
