Both halves are toast, but I bet there is plenty of hardware that can still be reused off of them

The thing about broken fairings is we usually don't hear what caused the mission to fail. Looking at the NOAA bouy data for 41002 it seems there could have been some instability with winds near the LZ. But, it could have simply been hardware failure. 1/2 #SpaceXFleet
https://twitter.com/julia_bergeron/status/1302224607634751491QuoteBouy 41001 to the northeast shows a similar pattern but without the spike ahead of launch. Without weather balloon data we don't know upper level wind conditions. They did collect the remains so I'm sure SpaceX will learn from the loss regardless of the cause.

OCISLY isn't far off the coast now, just got with in land tracking range a little bit ago. They don't enter at night so they will hang out off the coast until 7-8am when they will enter the port. #SpaceXFleet #SpaceX #OCISLY

The twelfth Starlink mission is complete with the arrival of B1060.2 onboard OCISLY. It is expected that processing will wait until Tuesday so that the SpaceX techs can enjoy the holiday weekend. #Starlink

Each of the four cables up to the lifting cap have been attached to the legs and looks like they are preparing to rig the horizontal support bars that attach below each of the legs for folding🚀 Got a timelapse running! #SpaceXFleet

Here are a closing trio of wide, telephoto, & super telephoto views of #B1060.2 as work seems to be done for the day🚀
The front right leg was raised slightly before crews left (see horizontal support bar below the leg w/ double cable run up to the lifting cap) Try again tmro!
Edit to add:
https://twitter.com/trevormahlmann/status/1303809100501995521QuoteAha! Upon inspecting my timelapse, I missed a leg that was mostly obscured from my view.
From a different vantage point, can clearly see #B1060.2 had 1 of its 4 legs raised this afternoon at ~3:30pm. Opposite leg looks prepped/ready to raise at a moments notice. -
