Sounds like one of the legs may have taken (partially planned-for) damage on the landing, so they're a bit nervous that it'll tip over on the way back. Hope it makes it!

She's a leaner.
![]() Hopefully the stage itself is OK, though. |

Close-up of the base. Looks like the engines all are fine, so even though it landed hard on that one leg, it still held up.

Looks like it's a good thing they have those yellow railings on the side. It slid a TON to the side before they could get it secured to the deck.

Ha! I knew that I saw it leaning on the previous landing.

Apparently the legs have a "crush core" that's designed to give a little (or a lot in this case) in the event that it comes down pretty hard, and this one used it up entirely.
I haven't heard that mentioned about the previous landing, but I think it stands to reason that each time the first leg down will likely have to give a bit unless it lands absolutely perfectly on all four simultaneously. |

Landing photos are up on Flickr. It's impressive that it was still able to land after coming in this off-level.
