DocM Posted July 19, 2018 Author Share Posted July 19, 2018 Looking like this one will be on core B1049. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unobscured Vision Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Looks like a tight schedule ... my guess is that SpaceX are looking to improve procedures on Ground Crew and ASDS turnaround times. DocM 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocM Posted July 28, 2018 Author Share Posted July 28, 2018 (edited) 95% certainty since it was seen by Teslarati heading for LC-40's hangar. Core: B1046.2, the first Block 5 goes Flight Proven. Its first use was Bangabandhu 1. 2nd fastest turnaround, even with the enhanced inspection to confirm all the durability mods worked.

Unobscured Vision Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 I'm still trying to figure out how anyone can give a SpaceX live stream a "thumbs down" before the launch stuff has even started ... sheesh. Aaaaand here we go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+rdlenk Subscriber² Posted August 7, 2018 Subscriber² Share Posted August 7, 2018 It's probably Lauren and the other presenters tonight. I'd give it a thumbs down too if I worked a full day and then had to be on camera all night and not sound completely burned out. I get lucky in that I work the whole day and then night for launch but don't have to be on camera for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
