What was the splash that happened in the top right of the feed at T=+8:53 (27:58 in the webcast)
Here is a comparison of the public booster telemetry from Starlink L22 and L23.

I don't know, but I think it may just be a compression artifact.Note how it disappears entirely from one frame to the next, three frames prior to T+09:00.(However the sudden disappearance could itself be a compression artifact.)Whatever it is, if forms from left to right and is present for about five seconds, and if I didn't know any better I'd say it was the booster venting inline with the visible horizon. But while the F9 booster does vent from a number of locations shortly after landing, I don't think it does so at that location.

Thanks for the feedback. I used to post them as .png files, but a couple of months ago there were some display issues with .png on the site, so I swapped to .jpg. Perhaps a mod can tell me the preferred site format?
Shelia Bordelon is now under one hour away from Port Canaveral with the fairing from the Starlink mission earlier this week.
SpaceX's new recovery ship the Shelia Bordelon arrived back in port early this morning with only 1 fairing from the recent Starlink 23 mission. The fairing appeared in good shape but the disposition of the 2nd fairing is unknown. #spaceX #NASA #Science #SpaceXFleet
OCISLY droneship and B1058-7 still closing in on Port Canaveral.Droneship should be within the vicinity of Port Canaveral around midnight, setting up an arrival after dawn tomorrow morning.
Good Morning ☀OCISLY and B1058 are just offshore and preparing to arrive at Port Canaveral in the next couple of hours
Falcon 9 B1058-7 has arrived at Port Canaveral.Watch live: youtube.com/watch?v=gnt2wZ…
SpaceX's Booster B1058.7 & OCISLY arrived at Port Canaveral just after sunrise this morning from this weeks #spaceX Starlink 23 mission The booster is getting extremely sooty with the NASA worm barely visible anymore but appears in good shape #NASA #Science @elonmusk #spacexfleet
Possibly the most famous of all the Falcon 9 boosters, B1058 has returned from her 7th mission. This booster began its life returning human spaceflight to the Space Coast last May during the DM-2 mission. These days, she passes the time sending Starlink satellites to orbit.
Worm vs meatball? Why not both?!
Thats odd. They just set 1058 on the ground instead of the stand they use to raise the legs.
Its over the stand now, guess they just set it down for some reason.

Holy levitating Falcon, Batman!B1058 is moments away from being placed on the transporter to be rolled away and prepped for another mission. But if you’re watching Fleetcam, you already knew that. youtu.be/gnt2wZBg89g
B1058 spent the majority of the morning working on its legs. Now that they've all been retracted, we're just waiting on the second crane to attach and lay the booster on its side. Another beautiful day at the port.
