First stage kept all engines running during boost, and second stage fired and burned quite a while… so it has already surpassed the N-1
-
Still too much debris flying out from launch pad area. Much less than first flight.
-
Good luck, SpaceX.
-
FWS needs more data (assuming they are making decisions based on science). So they should allow test flights and gather data until they find something that could pose a long term problem.

That Falcon 9 booster sure was coming in hot and squirrelly. I'd want to check that one over really well before reusing it.
-
Entry burn funtime
Booster sure does slow down fast in the air. How many Gs it it pulling?
Landed!
Such a dainty touchdown.
-
Starlink providing Internet to millions. But not me.
Good orbit.
Stage one landed.
That's a hefty dogleg on that stage 2 trajectory.
-
Nice picture of fog.
Go for launch.
Bright fog. Liftoff.
Stage 2 good.
Stage one catching some sunlight at apogee
Entry burn good.

5 hours ago, tater said:
It'll be interesting to see if they do a static fire with it
Do they have a spare starship with current engines and engine shielding that they could stick on top of a hot-staging adapter for a short static fire on a suborbital pad? Not the ship they plan to actually use in the next orbital attempt…something they don't plan to use right away, just in case it gets a bit messed up.

I love watching two boosters land.
And I love seeing expensive satellites safely make it to orbit. Waiting on second burn of stage two.
-
Just another workaday trip to orbit.
-
Liftoff.
Good second stage.
Entry burn good.
Booster landed.
Nominal orbit.
-
Starlink mission. T minus 3 minutes. Weather has cleared up.
15th flight for this booster.
-
Seems to be more of those lately. I wonder if they have tightened up the windows for acceptable data values.
-
I likes me a nice Falcon Heavy launch. Fancy stripe.
-
Looks like scrub at T-40 sec
Didn't say why.
Unless I missed it.

Rocket launch funtime!
-
Such tiny vent holes.
-
Hot staging Starship? That's quite a shift in thinking. I wonder if they will only ignite a few of the Starship engines at first to decrease blast on the booster, then kick in the other engines after separation.
-
I like a good view of the booster shadow during landing.
-
First stage landed
Nominal orbit. Good job.
-
Liftoff
-
AX-2 go on weather.

Yeah… the biggest safety concern from the first launch for me was the anemic FTS. The bird has showed that it can blow up real good now.
