The two "boosters" are previously-flown? Wow.

Iridium is up tomorrow evening. This will be a previously-flown booster, but sadly they appear to be ready to start moving out some of their old cores in storage, so they aren't landing this one.
This is by choice - they could easily do it within the mission parameters - but the scuttlebutt has it that they're wanting to get rid of most of their "block 3" cores to make room for the block 5 cores which will, theoretically, be able to fly 10+ times. Still sad to see a perfectly good booster destroyed. ![]() |

Today is the 2-year anniversary of the first landing. Crazy how mundane these have gotten to be. It's kind of fun to watch the video of the first landing again and seeing how excited everyone was.

He needs a booster graveyard. But I suppose it's cheaper to just let it fall into the sea. Last edited by eDave; 12-22-2017 at 03:07 AM.. |

![]() Aside from storage, I'm sure there are quite a few costs to recovery like the drone ship and crew, extra fuel, the legs, etc. that they just decided to save rather than recover another one that won't ever be used again. |
