Nope, mine cut out as well just before touchdown. One of those inconvenient "loss if signal" things that make you go hmmmm.

Cool thing was that they were able to return the booster and land it on a floating pad in the ocean. Landed perfectly.

If you liked that, lookup the video of Falcon Heavy boosters landing simultaneously together at Kennedy Space Center.

Ha, ha. But yeah, for something this momentous you would have though they would have had a sister ship abeam to film( maybe they did) to be on station just in case.....no retro rockets and it slams thru the deck and everyone needs to be rescued, etc. In all honesty, I will be totally surprised if there is not footage of the event.....but then the tin foil hats come will out:)

It’s a drone ship. Nobody to rescue if something goes wrong.

Are you sure....my coverage said loss of signal and then magically, viola, the booster is sitting upright on the ship! Personally, if they were gonna deprive me of seeing that, I would have rather watched Siegfried(or possibly Roy) get his head bitten off.

Just kidding, but with the cost of Vegas shows, that one might have been worth the money! Just kidding again.

In all seriousness, I'm glad Trump commanded them to launch..." safety be dammed, by God, I want a launch, I'm not wasting another trip down here".
Crap, a threefer

Seriously, that was amazing! Hopefully, it won't be politicized and can help bring the country together at least for the next 19 hours until nightfall or Space Station docking....fingers crossed.

hey man, I hear what you are saying and I agree with all of your positivity. What I can’t let slide without being a ****ty troll is giving one cent of this credit to trump. Somehow he waves a hand and all the professionals just nod their heads and say ok? Let’s give credit where credit is due. The men and women that put in a crap ton of sweat, blood, and tears to make something real we can all come together on as a nation.

all I ask is please please to not give any street cred to some standard scummy politician (they all are on both sides)
ok sorry
