What do you mean by you can't win them all?

Some of the goals of this morning’s launch were not met. They couldn’t catch the payload fairing due to rough waters and poor conditions. SpaceX however has a great track record in succeeding after failure. Four steps forward, one step back.

@LaMariposa I gotcha now. The fairing yes! I mean that would be an incredible thing to do. But the more times they fail the more they learn. Just like with landing the falcon 9s. Took a few times but now look at them

SpaceX does seem to be doing rather well. Its impressive how much more efficient they seem to be than NASA...

But it's still a fantastic feat that the rocket is brought back and lands tail first on a ship!!

Are these satellites designed to bring the internet to the entire planet? I think I read that somewhere.

Posted by starwatcher-alSolar minimum was in 2019 so the sun is ramping up in flares, spots and prominences.

Posted by starwatcher-alI missed the early phases of the eclipse but the clouds mostly left during totality. All in all a great eclipse. Next one is Nov. 8-22
