Speculation: They'll pull it apart to see what condition every single part is in, so they can work out what the costs of reusing it will be like.

Halo_003 Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 That was SO AMAZING. I'm in Jacksonville, FL, and I got to see it from my yard. I saw it go up, watched the stream on my Surface tablet, and then watched it come back down through the clouds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O.O E/ just me, or is there a TON more LOX boiloff then previous launches??? Probably due to the colder LOX that they are using for this flight (which also caused some issues last Thursday during pre-launch / prior to the static fire).
