- thelittleone 3y agoStarship didn't do re-entry though right? They lost signal, and what happened after that was not explained. It was at the target height and >24,000km/h when it lost signal. Some coverage suggested SECO happened, they they lost signal.

- datameta 3y agoAt the conclusion of the SpaceX stream they confirmed the automated launch abort system triggered with vehicle lost. But so much data gained!
- euroderf 3y agoI hope that future mission commanders will never ever let control forget that someone mistakenly kaboomed an upper stage.
- MatthewElvey 3y agoYeah, me too. There were onboard cameras on Starship and Super Heavy. Hopefully they'll release more footage and info over time. Even the first launch had some. https://www.reddit.com/r/SpaceXLounge/comments/12claay/the_known_onboard_cameras_on_starship_and/ https://www.reddit.com/r/SpaceXLounge/comments/12claay/the_k.... I recall the during the SpaceX audio commentary of this morning's launch (but perhaps EverydayAstronaut's) it was mentioned that onboard cameras on Starship and Super Heavy would be attempting to communicate via Starlink for the first time.
