Everything going amazingly well so far (not to jinx it). Starlink simulators deployed successfully. Still got to do an engine relight and a reentry.

And that's a wrap. 100% success from what I could see.

That event at 47:00 into the broadcast had me thinking it was going to blow up again. It really looks like it took an impact from a separate piece of space debris that was about to reenter. I can't imagine there is anything mounted in that area that would have been able to create that kind of event. Would sure be interested to hear what SpaceX has to say about it but I doubt they'll say anything.

I wonder if SpaceX has more cameras they don't show in the broadcast, they may have a better view of the disassembly.

Sorry you did not get to see a launch in person.  I've seen Flight 3 (cloudy day) Flight 4 and Flight 5 (booster catch).   Next up will be a night launch and/or a ship catch.  Frequency should ramp up once the second tower comes online.  

Video here is taken by me on my I-phone.   I lost the frame at the end because I simply could not believe what I was witnessing. The guy talking was my Air Force buddy also in disbelief..

The wife and I drove down to watch flight 7 back in January but unfortunately it got delayed longer that we were willing to stay so we didn't get to see the actual launch. I would like to go down and watch when they first try to catch the ship. I went down and watched the SN10 flight from the Margaritaville (it was called The Pearl back then).

WOW, those pics are really cool.😎

I second that. Awesome pictures.

 It's been a life long dream of mine to watch a launch live. I have a passion for anything that flies. I can imagine getting goosebumps when those things launch.

Very nice! I did get to see SN10 fly. It didn't look real even though I was right there watching it. It was the first one to land semi successfully on landing legs.
