Hello,

Would this be the right place to ask whether anyone knows (and is able to say) whether the fairing halves for today' launch are new, or reused?

Or would this be something I need to ask in L2?

I'd like to be able to fill out an "unknown" item in Everyday Astronaut's prelaunch preview article.

Thanks, in advance,
Andy Law

Typically the fairings are new if they don’t give any history, but you should ask in L2 if you’d want confirmation for publication.

Just a small-seeming issue with loss of upper stage camera. Probably nothing serious, but standing down to re-examine whole vehicle just in case.

This is LD on Countdown.  Hold. Hold. Hold.  Today's attempt is scrubbed for mission assurance.
