The tug for the JRTI droneship (First stage recovery) appears to be having mechanical issues.
 Tug Hawk is definitely struggling with JRTI. GO Quest is zooming down towards them from the north and Finn from the south. (Finn's AIS is down so exact location unknown. Tug Finn Falgout has just departed Port Canaveral - amid reports via maritime radio - that tug Hawk, currently towing JRTI droneship to the Starlink LZ, has suffered a mechanical fault and needs rescue. Support ship GO Quest has also departed  Source: SpaceXFleet.com 27 April 2021 Update from SpaceXFleet.com "Quick update on this: First thing this morning Just Read the Instructions was handed over from Tug Hawk to Tug Finn Falgout, with the help of support ship GO Quest." |

I am in Titusville for the night while traveling for work and just came inside from watching the launch. Once it got up there you could actually hear the thing! Very cool experience- growing up in Florida unfortunately I never got to make the trip over from Tampa during the shuttle program and this is the first launch I’ve seen from this close. Nice end to a workday.

This video does not do it justice, we're all the way down by Okeechobee county, probably at least 60 miles from Cape Kennedy and you could see it clear as a bell. My wife thought she could hear it.
