Jaff Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Sneaky shot of lz2 there? I quite literally cannot wait for FH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchz95 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 That shot of the first stage separating and boosting back was phenomenal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brotoro Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 (edited) Very nice. This was the first time I saw the launch exhaust trail hanging over Cape Canaveral from the booster camera view as it returned.

PakledHostage Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Excelent show. I just wish that they'd shown the first stage telemetry again this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its still part of LZ-1, just a different landing pad. But its fantastic to see that the second landing pad is done, so that's not holding up FH. On 12/15/2017 at 10:54 AM, Julien Kerman said: How many boosters flew two times? Today was the third one. The Iridium launch Dec. 22 will also use a reused booster, and the Falcon Heavy side cores will be reused too. The RADARSAT Constelation will be launching on a reused core in a couple years too.
