[08:38:30] is that the 3/4 orbit and splashing down near hawaii thing? [08:38:47] Don't know. Just saw the shortnews. [08:38:53] Have to dig further first :D [08:39:20] schedule seems to be tight. still has to make the complete heat shielding including something for the fins, which is hard to do because of the hinges [08:39:37] and the booster hasnt even hopped yet [08:40:25] yeah [08:40:34] but BN3 will fly to orbit no matter what. [08:40:54] And the heat shielding could be easier than some might think [08:41:18] And they wont land any of the stages in a serious way anyways... [08:41:36] in the water [08:41:41] but i expect to collect them anyway [08:41:46] they filed for a test flight in june - i expect it to happen in december [08:42:07] we'll see tho [08:42:35] this orbit date was their original target months ago [08:42:37] oh, wow, full coverage all the way down for the last F9 booster [08:42:51] no coverage for the chinese lander :) [08:43:04] while perseverance had several views of itself [08:45:08] and it does look like the upper stage had some kind of fuel leaking problem?! [08:45:38] btw did the electron first stage land? [08:48:42] upper stage of what? [08:50:51] F9 [08:55:38] how do you know that? [08:57:23] in the stream you can see something evaporating at the back and creating ice there [08:57:33] I'm not sure if that is a problem or normal [08:57:36] never seen it before. [08:59:02] next launch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlRn5R4BcSI [08:59:36] !nextlunch [08:59:36] Mat2ch: Raisin bran.
