  1. Pitch and Yaw's going to be a little janky, but roll should be fine. The booster also lands with one engine, right?
  2. They could request a retrograde orbit. Worst case scenario, suborbital Starship gets ripped up by low orbiting debris and lands somewhere in the Pacific. It's a good thing because that'll clear up that orbital path of any debris whatsoever, because Starship is already falling down anyways.
  3. I think I found a map for what the NOTAMs looked like for the IFT-7's launch plan. Turk and Caicos is very helpfully labelled on the map.
  4. Had this playing in my head while watching the videos of the remains of IFT-7 coming down.
  5. Hmm, maybe they accidentally borrowed a few faulty Cybertruck motors from Austin? There was a Cybertruck that blew up in Las Vegas.
  6. Ah, finally back inside. I went outside to try and spot it but there were too many clouds and it started raining as I was walking back to my apartment T~T Horrifying as it is 40° F where I am in Florida.
  7. I think that was for the gridfins though. A few grid fins got stuck, but the booster was slow enough by then, that there was no real impact. However, they already switched over to using electric motors by the next launch.
  8. Only thing I can remember was some water vapor freezing in Superheavy after hotstaging and then slamming into the bottom of the tank and shredding the fuel lines to the 13 middle engines. Not the same thing that's happening with BONG though.

  10. Realized that I can get whatever game I want on the PS3 by using RPCS3, and started building my collection. Is it piracy? Technically no, because they don't make the PS3 anymore and they shutdown the PS3 online stores too, so these games can't be collected from the original manufacturers.
  11. That sucks, I was about to drive down there with my grandpa. Monday's no good since I have classes.
  12. It's amazing how much it's been stretched out as the Merlin engines got better.
  13. The shiny bits are still just stainless steel, right? Interesting that they would show it in bronze instead of the conventional silver.
  14. It's a shame he's hooked himself to a helicopter and flown away.
  15. Can confirm this, moon was out when I was there. Unrelated Orion under Orion. Moon was further over to the left of this image.
  16. There'd be some representative from the South asking whether they can trust a limey to take care of NASA.
  17. Not sure why it's happening. Before staging , it works fine, but afterwards it doesn't.
  18. Had a great Thanksgiving, and I got to bring my Nintendo collection and had a blast, battling siblings in Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros.
  19. Dang it, I thought the blackout blinds would work... My family drove down from Alabama and we got to spend the day in our hometown and had a great time meeting with old neighbors!
  20. I couldn't find the video itself from SpaceX, but I did find a channel reposting it, back in April.
