Mitchz95 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 (edited) I don't think I've ever been this nervous before a launch before. Even though I know it'll probably be okay, return-to-flight is always high-stakes and another failure would be absolutely devastating. I wonder what the hosts are supposed to say if things go wrong.

WuphonsReach Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 I swear it tipped slightly away from vertical at launch, wonder if there was an under/over thrust condition during the first second or two. Very cool to see the RCS thrusters firing on the first stage as it turns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
