SpaceX F9 - Sentinel 6-Michael Freilich - SLC-4E

Very interesting! Thanks for posting that.
As far as I know the boats designed to catch fairings are currently in Florida. SpaceX may have tried to fish the fairings out of the water, haven’t heard anything about that yet.

Looks like Quest was there for fairing recovery and just about to get back to port where we will have an idea of what happened to the fairings: https://twitter.com/spacexfleet/status/1330497281808887810?s=12

Pauline Acalin's fine work, made into a composite of the launch and landing:

It really drives home the short distance between both locations! And the flight-proven patina the booster acquired.

SpaceX made one from the other way around: Sentinel-6 Mission

That is an incredible composite that nicely shows just how close the LZ is to the launch site.

I was looking on Google and yes- the Launch pad and Landing zone are less than 1500 ft apart. (measured 1444ft on Google maps) and the shoreline is only another 3100 ft or so away

What happened to the fairings ?

Scooped out of water:

B1063 is looking pretty good.

This NASA b-roll is pretty cool, especially the second one: one take, no cuts, launch to landing with really cool supersonic shockwaves both ways:

(This weird link name leads to NASA, I swear.)

e-FTW....Thanks for sharing, That makes up for the poor coverage- Best video of a launch to landing I've seen..

Absolutely spectacular! Thanks for sharing. It's right up there with NROL-76 for watching a booster go through all its moves to the landing zone.

REALLY good- thanks very much.
