OCISLY has arrived at Port Canaveral with B1059.3 onboard. Detail shots coming once they get this thing berthed.
Another day. Another Falcon 9 booster return. I can get used to this cadence...Welcome home, B1059.3!📷: Me for @SuperclusterHQ
B1059.3 and it’s #SpaceXFleet escort.
Octograbbers deployment looks good, no wrapping this time. Also interesting markings on the side of the booster.
Falcon 9 B1059 has returned to Port Canaveral after its 3rd mission, launching SpaceX’s 9th batch of #Starlink sats. It’s been a while since a booster has returned with the sun out, and it was beautiful!
Beautiful morning for a #Falcon9 to return to Port Canaveral! B1059 is back and ready to be prepared for flight 4! #SpaceX is certainly keeping the pace very high! #SpaceXFleet
#Falcon9 Booster 1059.3 hoisting cap installation in progress this morning 945 AM about 1 h after berthing and 2 h after arrival Port Canaveral atop #OCISLY droneship- but interrupted for operational exercises. see follow up pic
Up close look at #Falcon9 Booster hoister cap and counterweights dangling in the wind with @Liebherr carne after cap installation interrupted for operational exercises work - 945 AM ET this morning 1 h after #SpaceX B1059.3 1st stage arrival on #OCISLY
Moments after jig lift craned into place beside recovered #Falcon9 landing legs techs get to work hoisted inside to various levels ready leg retraction-just returned 8AM today from sea landing #SpaceX #Starlink launch Jun13.UpClose humans at work 4scale on #OCISLY @PortCanaveral
They have lifted the opposite leg like they did with the other and placed what looks like a little cart/jack under the leg #SpaceXFleet
That’s what they are placing under the legs. They just lifted up another leg and placed the same thing under it
We use those at work. Let me find a link. https://www.uline.com/BL_1821/Manual-Lift-Tables?keywords=lift
Right leg pretty much fully retracted. Starting on the left #SpaceXFleet
Far right leg being lifted now
They are also in the process of installing the Merlin covers
2 legs retracted, 2 to go
The crane is still attached to the cap this time. I wonder why they disconnected it last time they did this method
3rd leg going up
Fourth leg in the process of being retracted
B1059.3 is free
B1059.3 going horizontal #SpaceXFleet
B1059.3 has gone horizontal at Port Canaveral - 10 hours after arriving on 'Of Course I Still Love You' droneship.

Is that a record for how quickly they were able to go horizontal?
