    So how do they perform 4 damn static fires with no lighting issues and on the one that counts the engines abort. FU Murphy

    Probably should get rid of that rule anyways, who's still on dialup here?

    I'm not sure if this is what you're referring to, but this boat was seen in the area shortly after the scrub. Kind of suspicious!

    My prediction was close! Those engines were eating themselves at the end. Super happy about that though. The decent was super stable and that flip was crazy fast.

    That flip was so cool. I can't believe how fast they stopped the flip.

    Did they use LOX to stop the flip?

    I didn't know the ascent was going to take so long. I was watching the SpaceX feed with no commentary, and thought maybe the thing was going too high. The flip and maneuvering was amazing. That thing is huge! Can't believe they can pull that off.

    That was incredible. That flip to vertical before landing was unreal. To bad it came in a bit hot...but WOW.

    That was amazing! Still kind of in shock. Watching it skydiving was surreal.

    Good call OG! Per Elon's tweet, just had low header pressure. Noticed the one raptor cutting out and the remaining one spitting green flashes (understood previously to be the copper lining).

    Long list of successes on this one. Very good result.

    Still wish it would have stuck it though!
