now watch all the news media coming like a wave on spacex saying to everyone spacex failed the launch 😂😂😂

[ceiczeu]

Maybe it’s just because it’s old and worn out: 23 launches is nothing to scoff at

[gregorycoogle]

Well, at least they got her off the pad and satellites and orbit. They’re still ahead of the game.

[SFSNewSpace]

Oh man that's a failure we haven't seen for a while

[Billybobble]

The surprising thing is something like this not happening sooner. This will just make them even more reliable. And to my knowledge, STILL the only company or country in the world that lands orbital class boosters at all, let alone on the regular.

[ukar]

Technically it did land successfully, but it was the booster's 23rd landing so it has a distinguished career behind it. The amount of flames after landing seemed to be, ore than usual. It's delayed launch of the next Starlink mission.

[chrischeshire]

23 launches and successful landings is a remarkable feat.

“Hello sir I’m calling about the extended warranty on your booster”

[JontyLevine]

Inspiration4 and Axiom-1 were both launched by this booster, on her third and fifth flights respectively, both historic firsts for human spaceflight. It's unusual that a single rocket stage gets to do more than one of these. On top of that, B1062 also launched Nilesat-301, a mission previously assigned to an expendable booster, along with 20 other missions.
She was a good ship.

[victorkrawchuk]

It was hard to see through the smoke but to me it seemed like B1062 landed at a slight angle. One of the landing legs might have gotten too much strain. I couldn't believe it when B1062 started tipping over. NO....!!!! But I hope ASOG wasn't damaged too badly, there are only two drone ships in the Atlantic and hopefully this incident doesn't delay Polaris Dawn any further.

Failure is an option when you are a pioneer! 😉

[LSF]

Bro was just sleepy and wanted to take a nap 😴

[georgeniebling]

Booster realized that was 23 and took retirement

[chrismantonuk]

Ah RIP B1062! 23 flights! Is that a record?

[keithsextonakathebluerose]

I saw impact at 11 kph, it dropped to 8 and then fell over.
May it rest in pieces.

[FarokhBulsara]

it touched down pretty hard this time, 10km/h
one leg couldn't take it and break, and the engines slammed to the ground, fuel spraying everywhere

[montylc]

Adds new meaning to the phrase, "Break a leg!". But 23 flights is impressive. Are there any other boosters with more?

[nolancain]

That back leg looked wobbly at 0:09. Definitely seems like it hit just a smidge hard.

[a..d]

Truth be told, this event has been itching in the deep recesses of my consciousness, every time a F9 comes in for a landing, we knew it was bound to happen, SX was tempting the fates as they stretched the number of landings for each one in the fleet.
I’m sorry it happened to 1062…
I was hoping for 25.
Sad, but still hope for a 25th soon.

[eugenecbell]

I think the engine failed to shut down promptly.
Good booster, RIP.
