The U.S. Space Command is reporting it has broken up as of Oct. 19th at 0430UTC. 20 pieces tracked currently.

Sounds like it was all good, so just the dust not being visible on the IR view.

Was expecting a little more debris to be kicked up on touchdown. Wonder if the rockets didn't fire or just the camera angle?

Looks pretty good with all the main chutes successfully deployed.

Bummer, but not terribly surprising.

Haha, good catch. It is fun to try and pronounce.

Please do, would be fun to follow along and discuss as events unfold.

That would be quite impressive if they pull it off before the launch window closes on October 21st. Not to mention the first launch sending a payload to Mars and landing the booster on a drone ship.

Definitely will be exciting to watch.

Edit: Fixed a typo, 22st just doesn't roll off the tongue.

Yeah, the EV market is fine, just Tesla sales which have dropped some, lowering numbers for the total EV market. Sales continue to be strong for other EV manufacturers, just one brand slowing down for some strange reason..... Almost like someone has started to alienate their core customer base....

I've found the video format entertaining. I typically play the episodes on YouTube, so having visuals to go with the episodes is a welcome addition. Also fun to see expressions from Robert, Sofie, and guest.

Less than the same area of lawn.
