The new Apple Campus 2 - AKA "The Spaceship" - is rapidly progressing through construction, and AppleInsider has been sending a DJI Phantom 2 Vision Plus drone through the skies of Cupertino on a regular basis to provide a birds-eye view of the campus taking shape.

The December tour shows that despite the short days of fall and early winter, a lot of work is being done. The spaceship ring is now almost completely covered with a concrete subfloor structure, and over a dozen cranes are busy moving materials into the ring for assembly.

Construction on the US$161 million underground theater is also moving along, with a well-defined excavation near a hill constructed of fill materials that will soon be covered with trees.

Finally, the drone imagery show that the first of two huge concrete parking structures is now three floors in height. AppleInsider also provides a bit of context near the end, showing the location of the existing Infinite Loop headquarters nearby.

Many thanks to Daniel Eran Dilger and the rest of the AppleInsider staff for making this amazing footage available to the public.
