The video shots were not as good with NASA oversight. We did not see the first stage flip and boostback burn. Stage separation was poorly shown as was the payload shroud ejection.
This was not done with normal SpaceX flair. |

That stream was unwatchable. I guess we found yet another thing that Spacex is better at than NASA.

"Set in 2018, SpaceX’s previous annual launch record stood at 21 missions – 20 Falcon 9s and one Falcon Heavy. Now, a little over halfway through November, SpaceX has easily bested itself, launching for the 22nd time to deliver oceanographic satellite Sentinel 6A to a polar orbit on November 21st.
Back on the East Coast, SpaceX fired up six-flight Falcon 9 booster B1049 just five hours after Sentinel 6A’s successful launch, setting the rocket up for its seventh flight – a first for SpaceX and reusable rocketry – in support of Starlink v1.0 Flight 15 (Starlink-15)." Source |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By dtrosch: How is the downrange forecast look for booster landing and fairing recovery? I'm not sure where they stage, but it looked like some rain off the coast. I don't know yet , just came inside because it's now dark. Just giving a local weather update because I licked my finger and put it up to get a windage reading , plus looked at the sky and could not see any clouds. Stars look nice though.
