Every flight that X dissappears more and more. #SpaceXFleet #SpaceX
As B1049.7 is entering Port Canaveral, SpaceX lifted a fairing half off Go Ms Chief.
Ms. Chief's fairing half was just lifted off and GO Searcher is coming over to get hers lifted too. #SpaceXFleet #SpaceX
Some people for scale with Ms. Chief's fairing half. #SpaceXFleet #SpaceX
Fleet Leader Falcon 9 B1049.7 has arrived into Port Canaveral. Epic views on NSF Fleet Cam of the extra sooty booster, under the firm hold of Octagrabber - and even Ms. Tree gave them a sail past!
And both drone ships got in on the Starlink Beta! 😄
Seven times flown. SEVEN!This time last year, I think the most a single #Falcon9 booster had flown was, what, 3 or 4?Imagine what next year will bring. Will B1049 be the first to cross the 10-flight line? It will have to compete with the likes of B1051, which has 6 flights.
Seven flights to space — and back.Here’s a closeup look at Falcon 9 B1049, the new Falcon fleet leader.
GO Searcher's fairing has been lifted. #SpaceXFleet #SpaceX
Fleetcam is going to want a bonus today. Now we're getting to see the recovered fairings being lifted. Getting the boosters back is huge, but the fairings cost millions of bucks, so also a big deal.➡️youtube.com/watch?v=rKdT0h…
Inspection marks on B1049.7 booster. #SpaceX
Cruised by the drone ship to say hello to B1049.7. 👋🤩
Finally caught the fancy rocket hat on the move at Port Canaveral, and they're installing it on B1049-7 now!LIVE on @NASASpaceflight #Fleetcam🔴 youtu.be/gnt2wZBg89g
Just another day on the #Fleetcam
Witness the full disconnect and retract/fold process for the SpaceX Octograbber🤖, captured at max #Fleetcam zoom. You can even see the latches retract from the booster. Entire process was approximately 40 minutes real-time.
Leg day for B1049.7 third leg is going up
Booster 1049.7 up close and personal. @SpaceIntellige3
Fleet leading @SpaceX #falcon9 #block5 B-1049.7 is leaving Port Canaveral and heading back to #capecanaveral for refurbishment and a future 8th flight while traffic on HWY 401 was stopped in both directions. What a great sight to stumble upon. Congratulations to #SpaceX ! 🚀🚀🚀
Still looking amazing after seven flights & landings @SpaceX #falcon9 #block5 B- 1049.7 is transported back to Cape Canaveral via HWY 401 from Port Canaveral this morning 12-4-20. The stores this booster could tell! @Falcon9Block5 @TalkofTville @SpaceIntellige3 @SpaceXFleet 🚀🇺🇲
