SpaceX just launched the eleventh Starlink mission. What makes this one special is B1049.5 just launched and landed for the sixth time with reused fairing as icing on the cake. Looks like this booster did just fine leaving Earth.

"Miss Chief is in route to scoop it out of the ocean."
So they're still not making catch attempts on both at once?

One fairing missed. That's what I gathered.

Perhaps, but weather conditions can be highly localized. Ms Tree might have had good conditions while Ms Chief, five or ten miles away, could have been close enough to a squall to call off the catch attempt.
Has anyone subscribed to offshore AIS reported how close the sisters are during dual catch attempts?
