Jeff is testing his rocket again, apparently the booster will probably be lost.

Sweet, not often you're gonna see a rocket flight with an almost certainty of the booster blowing up.
>>

No, I don't think so. It's a wonder they stream it at all, they're very secretive.
>>
>>8393052
They're getting less secretive now that they've got a working rocket to parade around.

Neither is a RUD right under your ass

Anyone else think that the crew capsule was shaking a bit much as the LES was firing? Looks like it would be a much bumpier ride than Dragon's LES.
>>
The booster only just now cut the engine. Wonder why they're bothering to send it all the way.
>>
>>8393104
so they can suicide burn it for the memes

Capsule has landed. Booster getting ready for reentry.

Did I miss something or did the crew capsules second rocket fail to fire just before it hit the ground?
>>
>>8393897
Neither of their concept videos show any landing rockets. I don't think they have them. They're just pomfing on some very dusty ground.
