There was also a moment just after the blackout where some odd camera view was showing...what was that?

Looks like a top down view of the interstage separating mechanism

edit: nope, it’s something else.

Inside the tank? They've done that before.

Ok, that does look like it's inside the fuel tank. You can see the fuel start to float just as the engine cuts out.

Yeah, it's definitely the interior of the LOX tank. You can tell because it's boiling.

Do they use ullage motors to deal with that?  How do they deal with that?
