Everyone on /r/spacex keeps flip-flopping on this, but there have been indications SpaceX will try to recover the first stage after the abort.
Should be interesting either way!
- Klathmon 8y agoLast I heard they weren't even going to have the landing hardware on the booster, but you are right that there are rumblings about how exactly the abort test will happen. IIRC we know stage 2 is going to be mostly a mass simulator, but not much else.
- grecy 8y agoI read a tweet from Elon that said Stage Two is flight hardware, with the exception of the vaccum Merlin engine that is a mass simulator.
