Stuck the landing with the life leader. Could see some spray on the water next to the barge, but the vehicle corrected for it.

Stuck the landing like an experienced fleet leader! great launch, really nice to see more Starlink going up and a smooth rapid turnaround of the first stage and more reuse of the payload fairing.

Well done SpaceX team.

Weird that NSF Live ended coverage before payload deployment...

Says deploy later this launch, also the crew deserves the short stream, they’ve put the awesome work in and deserve some rest

(Also potentially some SN9 action later, may have to do with it)

Appreciate the stream we were given regardless.

Pretty early-morning liftoff of Falcon 9 and the seventeenth Starlink mission.
