I'm not sure there's one in the back, and the other image on the update thread is showing the payload on the far side of the center aisle.Big long white thing, 'SpaceX' written along it What's interesting about that one is that the intertank has been removed and you can see the upper tank dome.

Musical chairs?

The 39A HIF pictured today:Forground booster is defiantly for NROL-76 (gridfins, etc for LZ-1 landing). The one behind todays flight booster though looks like a landed core that's been stripped down (No dance-floor/engines. With the top of the LOX tank visible of the right). The boosters used for CRS-9 is the only one (publicly) unaccounted for cape-side. Interesting though that it is fully cleaned, and even with the leg locking pin wiring still in place. Not the Immersat-35E booster, as it is still at McGregor, it should depart there after this evenings launch.
Awesome banner image from SpaceX.com of today's flight booster along with two others being prepped for future flights.
Is it just me, or is the SpaceX Technical Webcast on YouTube extremely blurry?
