SpaceX try 2 almost nailed it
-
-
So close! Should have read the instructions.
-
heard it came in a little hot and thus while not a failure, they are unable to reuse the section. I would guess the impact, not really seen in that video, was more than what they can allow

It's a bit morbid but I want to the see carnage

SpaceX released the video last time, so I would expect it to come at some point later today or tomorrow.

@jevans thanks for that.
Honestly, that was awesome. From the wide view it seems like they just need a little more oomph to slow it down before it gets to sea level. It seemed the thruster firing against the barge kept it from stabilizing.
-
Thruster? Is that a word?
-
-
They'll stick a landing on that barge before the year is out!

Next one is June.
