A good update on the highly exciting IFT5:
https://www.spacex.com/updates

Note from the SpaceX update:
“animals exposed to the sonic booms may be briefly startled”.
:pilot: :cross:

So trading Butch and Suni return for a launch license would be (excessively) juvenile?

A lot of that reads surprisingly similar to G100UL saga :(

Interesting there is a manual intervention for the Catch attempt.

It’s not even an intervention, it’s a manual authorization, without which the booster stays on a trajectory for the Gulf. I’m surprised that their default is not the Atlantic, but I don’t know the overall flight path.

If you're returning the booster to a site on the western side of the gulf, the Atlantic doesn't make much sense as a last-minute alternate.

You’re right of course.

For some reason my head was thinking about the cape, not Boca Chica.

I’m on south Padre island right now in Port Aransas. I probably won’t be able to see it but I’m going to watch.
