Can anybody explain why stage I telmetry was unusual today??
1)Stage seperation was at different altitude than usual.
2)stage one reached almost double of its normal altitude before coming back to Earth.
3)Entry burn was lasted about 30 seconds which is again longer than usual
4)second stage touched down at around a little more than 10 minuted which is again almost 2 minutes late.

Porque cortaron el momento cuando ingreso el.cohete y aterrizo.
Que esta passnfo aqui
Muestran solo cuando ingresa, todo oscuro y milagrosamente atertiza.
Donde estan las grabaciones cuando entra a la Tierra.
Son varios minutos.
Que estan ocultando.

if the earth is spinning almost 1000 mph, why wouldn't we be seeing that speed ? I mean, the earth looks like its spinning sooo slow?

Elon said that the landing would get boring overtime what happened?

[franciscojavierriveraorden]

Me pueden explicar porque en algunas tomas se ve la curvatura de la Tierra como.si fuera diminuta y en otras mas grande
Noto algo raro cuando cambian de canaras.

Did anyone notice that the left airbrake on the booster view was not retracted all the way during launch ? I wonder what would happen if it deployed during launch ?
