Why no recoverable 1st stage today?
"SpaceX will not attempt to land Falcon 9’s first stage after launch due to mission requirements."
I don't know... @elonmusk
#Inmarsat5F4 is the heaviest (~6 tonnes) GTO payload for @SpaceX so far, requiring all fuel reserves for maximum performance.
Thanks!
Please post the full 1st stage fall, sounded beautiful sacrificial on the webcast.
Yeah, SpaceX is editing the videos very well. It seems almost real time.
Can't wait to see how they hide that the Earth is hollow with The Boring Company.
Why specifically was first stage not landed?
What were all those "woah"s at around t + 7 minutes about?
That's what I want to know. They tried "something" with the first stage (no legs, no grids, so no landing, but they did something.)
And a little after that, they cheered. So whatever that something was, it must've worked. :D
RIP first stage
Why though?
First stage can only return when a smaller payload is attached.
The payload is too heavy and they need all their fuel to get it to orbit, not enough left to land first stage.
