People have been parking along the full length of the northside of 401 around the port. I had a space early on about 9:30a close to the giant terminal parking lot. Took a mile walk to the bleachers just inside the gate close to 11am and hardly any people were there, so I walked back to get my car and had zero problem finding a new space just outside the gate at 12:30. Sitting near the top of the 2nd set of bleachers right now. I'm wearing a bright red shirt & tan baseball hat with the letter 'J'. Pls say hi if you're here. Omigosh, only 10 more minutes!!

You can take a look, maybe see if one of the crew drops by for a bite. https://www.vesselfinder.com/?imo=9591648Where?If that's GoSearcher it's looking a little worse for wear. LoL2nd pic has the go searcher

The red ramp thing is where OCISLY berths; it sits underneath the wing and prevents it from scraping the dock AIUI.Can you tell if anyone's moving around over there? I'm thinking Go Searcher is taking a break because there's no fairing recovery on the FH mission, but I'd be very intrigued if it looked like (say) they were getting ready to go back out to sea.

Not tell if there was a van moving in the space x side or the shipping cargo crane.Elon twitted a diagram of the launch and it included a fairing recovery.
Hm! The graphic Elon tweeted was actually a graphic from an NSF news article (!), not created by SpaceX. So fairing recovery still in question.Why aren't those Go Searcher guys up on the roof deck of Fish lips like everyone else? Actually -- did anyone near fishlips catch a look at the Exploration Tower sign down the road -- did we confirm it is closed for a "private (SpaceX) event"? (I've attached the sign as it read for the ORS-5 launch.)
FYI dashed to Fishlips from 401. Entire 2nd floor and deck closed for SpaceX after party.
