Stacking S30 on B12

Wonder if Spx will do a non catch test flight which is something they already supposedly have approval for while waiting on the FAA for approval of a booster catch.
Time will tell

Weather trending good and they think they'll have enough of a gap to launch

They've been in orbit for 30 minutes now. You may want to refresh your video feed.

Huh, I did not know the live SpaceX feed on Youtube needed to be refreshed.  I thought it was live. And here I just watched the booster land.

Thought maybe you did something I've done before and accidentally clicked on the video's progress bar and not notice until later.

Another 2nd stage issue this time with Crew 9's launch. Didn't effect the actual launch itself but there was an issue with the deorbit burn and the 2nd stage came down a bit off target.
SpX is pausing launches until they figure out what happened.

[tinfoil] mode on

Seems like 2nd stage issues started right after Elon announced his support of Trump.
Only 2 so far, that I'm aware of, but food for thought

The United Launch Alliance (ULA) is rolling out the second Vulcan rocket, in prepration for the second flight of the vehicle. This mission will be used to certify the rocket in preparation of its operational phase. The main payload of the flight will be a mass simulator, as the intended payload, Dream Chaser, is delayed.
🔴LIVE: United Launch Alliance Rolls out Vulcan Rocket for CERT-2 flight
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUXJjQ-QkiE

Currently scheduled for Oct 4
Was originally suppose to carry Dream Chaser to obit but delays in that have pushed that that back  to another launch.
