User ID: 78565848 United States 03/06/2020 12:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.youtube.com (secure)] SpaceX is set to launch CRS-20 tonight at 11:50 pm eastern time. This will be the final launch of the original ISS cargo resupply contract. The next mission, CRS-21, will bring with it some changes in how SpaceX conducts these missions, including recovering the capsules in the Atlantic. The first stage booster, B1059, was last used to launch CRS-19, and will be attempting an LZ-1 landing after tonight's launch. The second stage was swapped with one already being prepared for a Starlink launch next week after a valve problem was found with the second stage originally designated for tonight's launch. Ground winds are the primary weather concern for tonight, but are expected to lessen if they need to go to the backup opportunity tomorrow night. The ultimate bugout IAMABADMUTHAFUKKR |

If it's all a hoax you can blow the story wide open, everyone around the area can see the launch and the landing happen. You can hear the sonic booms too. |

Re-Instate Smith-Mundt! User ID: 78409448 United States 03/06/2020 01:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 5 Stars and thanks! A lot of us are still interested in Space and Space Exploration. "I have come to the conclusion that all news should be treated like 9/11, assume it is a psyop with actors participating in a staged event complete with props, until proven otherwise, in which case assume whatever is being recorded, reported, televised, is distortions/lying by omission/outright lies, until proven otherwise." - Anonymous, 4-13-12 |

It's just projections from the flat earth projector station located by them guide stones in Georgia. The sonic booms are generated by huge sub-woofers flown overhead by the invisible boom planes Pretty sure I can make up something to cover all of it. Florida is the best example of the earth being flat, because it's super flat and the sun is just a big light bulb. |

(OP) Senior Forum Moderator 03/06/2020 02:33 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hey Astro, any idea what the ground track is going to be on ascent? Finally supposed to have clear skies here tonight, along the Carolina coast (CHS area), and wondering if we might be able to see anything. Thank you!

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76899770 This thing costs a trillion dollars? man, that seems expensive to me. Even the whole ISS didn't cost that. It's something like $150 billion. These launches are about $90 million each. |

It's me explaining why your arbitrary goalpost is horseshit. Hey genius, what do you see all around the landing pads in that pic up there? Tell me, what do you see? Trees! The landing pads are in a nature preserve, it's buffer space to make sure if anything goes wrong it doesn't damage civilian areas just a few miles away. There's nowhere I can go to track it continuously with my telescope from launch to landing where the landing is not at least partially obscured by trees. However, partial is not total and I HAVE proven that these landings are real. You can still see the top of the booster AFTER touchdown. Guess what that means genius? It's still there and it's real. I was the first to do that out of anyone in the civilian population starting with the first Falcon Heavy launch. Nothing you say will ever turn these facts into "obfuscation." |

And if I come back with even better footage of the landing tonight with an even clearer view of the booster from a spot that the average person isn't permitted to get to, will you still claim it's fake and admit you're a cocksucking troll piece of shit, or will you come back and apologize to me and admit I was right? |

So any unmolested views of the landing we have to rely on SpaceX to analyze the landings? Thanks. Please, keep the theatrics out of this. They may impress ignorant followers, but really just weaken your stance by showing your bias |
