[Electroman]

Wow! they launched one today and another one in just three days?

 

[Grendal]

Static fire went well. The weather for tomorrow stinks though:

[Grendal]

And scrub due to weather...

And scrub due to weather...

Sigh, back to Scrubtober.

Bruce.

 

[ItsNotAboutTheMoney]

I figured it had been scrubbed with SpaceX posting on YouTube a 47:50 minute video of Mission Control audio saying nothing.

 

[Grendal]

New date and time added. Weather is 60%.

Successful launch, landing, and no attempt at catching a fairing because of weather. They will still pull them out of the ocean though.

Milestone 100th successful launch: 98 F9's and 2 F1's.
63rd recovery of an orbital class booster.
43 times they have re-flown a previously flown booster. They are heading quickly toward 50% of all boosters having been reflown. The incredible cost savings and why SpaceX is now the world leader in orbital launches.

Yes, 95 F9s, 3 FHs and 2 F1s (Original name for Heavy was Falcon 9 Heavy)
Majestic landing:

The ocean appeared calm. What weather interfered ?

 

[HVM]

Last mission both ships were hit by falling rocket nose cone, what odds!

Go Ms. Chief is, regardless of injury, is trying fish out some recoveries...
