It looks like the payload almost escaped. It pops off and a parachute comes out, but then it drifts into the flame path of the upside down rocket and burns up.

- robryk 13y agoWhy would there be a parachute if the payload contained only non-returning satellites? I couldn't see anything I would call a parachute on the videos I watched.
- swamp40 13y agoYou are correct. The outer shell of the payload peeled off right before the payload, and I had mistaken that for a parachute.
