Shelia Bordelon is in the lead for L24 return with the fairings. (Will offload and head right back out) while GO Quest, Finn and JRTI are coming back with B1060-7.

Late "Press kit" capture with OCR, but before the post-launch update the page was broken on every browser I can use and I couldn't capture the whole page...

Does anyone have a guess on when I can see the booster return?  I’m in town and would love to see it come in.

Shelia Bordelon has returned to Port Canaveral with two fairing halves that she fished from the water from the last starlink launch. #SpaceXFleet #SpaceX

.@SpaceX’s GO Quest is back in Morehead City tonight—less than five days after leaving to support #Starlink 24 and rescuing Tug Hawk and JRTI. She’ll set sail again to support OCISLY and the next Starlink mission NET 4 May

Shelia Bordelon unloaded the recovered fairing halves from the Starlink L24 mission onto waiting transporters. They'll resupply and head back out for the L25 mission scheduled 5/4. GO Searcher saying peek-a-boo as they ready for their Dragon duties. #SpaceXFleet #Fleetcam

#SpaceX #Falcon9 rockets meet the Sun (10/6/20) & the Moon (4/28/21 aka "To the Moon" with @elonmusk).

Now I need to add a Falcon Heavy...or maybe Starship to my transit collection. 

slowed to about 50% speed.

This is so cool..

Falcon 9 B1060-7 returning to Port Canaveral earlier this afternoon.

I had a good time chatting it up with folks. It’s always great to see the increasing enthusiasm for spaceflight, and I enjoy sharing mine with others.

Bonus shot of a bit of North Cargo Pier 6. I spy a white tent (I believe fairings live here), two Dragon test articles, a fairing half and processing stand.
