I'm wondering why the top 3rd of the booster didn't frost over? It looks like the bottom tank is full, but the top tank is only a quarter full. Assuming that each tank takes up half of the ship.

Edit: someone in the ars forum said: "Looks like the are loading more LOX than LCH4 for mass. I assume to counter thrust while avoiding having more methane than needed for safety and environmental reasons."
