Just watched the recorded live stream and... wow! What a show. Incredible views of a test that appears to have successfully achieved all potential objectives through reentry, rotation maneuver, relight, landing burn and upright water landing in the Indian Ocean.
The only unfortunate bit was some debris cracking the camera lens during the last part of reentry so the view for spectators was occluded but SpaceX maintained their live data feed all the way through, which is the important part. As they say, for these tests "the data is the payload."
- salesynerd 2y agoThe real-time view of the re-entry through the plasma was phenomenal!
