Yes. Third of the year. I think it was SLC40, so technically CCAFS not KSC, but a nit pick.
Oops, I am wrong. LC39A sorry.
Fairings on second flight, hoping to recover. First stage on 10th flight.
Reuse seems like it is working out really well for SpaceX!
NOt getting good first stage feed as it comes in to land. Might simply be it is completely dark and just a black screen...
Entry burn starts around 8000 kph, at about 52K
Slows it down to about 5800 kph, at 35K ASL.
Then aerodynamics slow it down....
And landed! That is the 4th core to make it to 10 flight.
103rd landing. 137th flight of F9 (ignoring F1 and 3 F-H). THat has exceeded the Space Shuttle now.
And Jan 27th is CSG mission, should be RTLS of a light payload.
And there might be another Starlink right after that one!
2022 off to a fast pace. 3 launches in 12 days?
