THIS is what a five time launched and landed booster looks like. The layers of scorch tell the story of B1049.5 and a company that is continuing to evolve with each mission. #SpaceXFleet #B10495
Fifth flight of 49No filter#SpaceX
Falcon 9 booster 1049.5 has returned to Port Canaveral aboard SpaceX’s “Just Read the Instructions” droneship!This marks the first time SpaceX has successfully recovered a Falcon booster after its fifth flight — and marks the first use of JRTI on the east coast.
Suprise! The new Octagrabber is definately on JRTI and holding B1049.5 firmly. It seems that Octa 1.0 received upgrades and some fresh paint to match the new booster holding superpowers of 2.0#SpaceXFleet #SpaceX #Octagrabber

Published on 8 Jun 2020#SpaceX Falcon 9 turns night into day. Watch to 1:38 to see why night launches are some of our absolute favorite. This was also one of the loudest launches too, Merlin engine rumble amplified by a reflecting cloud layer. In this video we're sharing several RAW camera captures from the SpaceX #Starlink-8 mission. We'll be discussing these shots, cameras, and set-up process combined with additional footage planned for Starlink 9 next week in our next live discussion episode. __Learn more about our work at https://www.cosmicperspective.comView behind-the-scenes footage and join our discussions at https://www.patreon.com/cosmicperspec...
