    Falcon 9 fairing halves deployed their parafoils and splashed down in the Pacific Ocean last week after the launch of Iridium-6/GRACE-FO. Closest half was ~50m from SpaceX’s recovery ship, Mr. Steven. http://instagram.com/p/BjdAcCuFegz pic.twitter.com/LjiTwnB4wd

        Mr Steven is a waste of money, pack the fairing with an outboard engine, a compass and an intern and let it sail home.

        Except then the fairing touches the water whixh is exactly what you want to avoid.

        I remember someone calling "duck" so I looked around wondering what a duck would do out here 🤔😄 when I realized I just missed my chance because I was distracted, I angrily shouted back "Wait, why would you call duck? It's supposed to land on me!" 😄

        Any chance of using spare fairings as souvenirs? Could be a profitable way to dispose of them, if they can't be reused.

        @SpaceX uses pneumatic locks and pistons to avoid ground-untestable, single failure prone equipment for fairing separation. AFAIK all other launch companies use explosive bolts, joints and cords to initiate separation. Last time these caused an issue was @isro's #IRNSSH mission.
