Successful Starlink deployment. Congrats to SpaceX on another successful launch and landing.

Here is a comparison between the first stage telemetry for Starlink L21 and L22. The main differences are:
1. The vee-shaped throttle bucket of L21 compared to the flat bottomed bucket of L22.
2. The slightly lower acceleration of the life leader L21 B1051.9 booster from about T+110s, resulting in MECO a couple of seconds later than its B1060.6 junior.

Liftoff!
Falcon 9 B1060 begins its 6th journey to space, carrying 60 #Starlink satellites to orbit in the wee hours of the morning here on the Space Coast.

B1060 got its start flying a GPS-III satellite, with Turksat 5A and a few Starlinks sprinkled in there.
After a successful landing on OCISLY, we’ll see her back in port in a few days!

First I have seen the landed booster giving its view from its own camera
Also first time I remember seeing simultaneous stage 1 and stage 2 views during stage separation. A couple of new tricks!

That’s not new, been shown many times in the past. -

I am always searching for new perspectives from around the Space Coast. Here’s a shot I’ve been wanting to try for a while of @Explorationtwr and #Falcon9 🚀 #Starlink

Starlink recovery update:
Stand in fairing recovery ship Shelia Bordelon is keeping a steady pace and should be back by tomorrow. I can only assume OCISLY is not far behind GO Quest with a possible return of late Friday/early Saturday. #SpaceXFleet #Starlink -

Shelia Bordelon has returned to Port Canaveral with two fairing halves that she lifted out of the water with her crane. They look intact, but are not tarped. #SpaceXFleet #SpaceX

I haven't seen this posted yet. Public radio outlet Northwest Public Broadcasting is reporting that debris seen over NW skies was due to a failed Falcon 9 2nd stage deorbit burn.

Edit: Apologies. This is indeed the L17 2nd stage that re-entered the other night. Not L22's. -

I suppose the question they should be asking themselves is, what does a 2nd stage reentry after a successful de-orbit burn look like. -

I believe that’s from L17. The discussion starts from this post:

Exactly the same, but no one sees it because it is somewhere south of New Zealand.I haven't seen this posted yet. Public radio outlet Northwest Public Broadcasting is reporting that debris seen over NW skies was due to a failed Falcon 9 2nd stage deorbit burn.
