I slowed down and resynched the engine diagram during the booster engine restart, that's a pretty hard failure that damaged neighbours.

2 months later the creator of Nuclear Design Bureau is still waiting for the US government to confirm that his video game that uses Minecraft level physics simulations is not a threat to national security.

A lot of the news stories talking about the uncommanded A320 dive talk about losing 100 feet over 10 seconds. That really doesn't sell the suddenness of this pitch down. It essentially performed a zero g dive for a second then pulled out at about 1.4g.

Sad to hear Wally has gone west. I remember watching NS-16 and when the capsule was decelerating at Max g loading she was whooping and cheering while everyone else was silent.

I still don't have a good explanation for why the booster flipped the wrong direction beyond the notion that it's an unstable situation and small perturbations can quickly grow in ways not planned.

Other things I saw today: this pilot tried to land 3 times before giving up, poor guy. Aircraft passed 800 hours logged time. Saw a big burn scar near KCPU, and some big storms brewing over the Sierras.

One last observation - during hot staging the booster velocity drops rapidly for a moment, this is faster than can be explained by gravity. If this is accurate the booster had negative g loading for a moment, possibly lifting propellent off bottom of tanks. It's very short, but still a bigger deceleration than I expected

I was wondering whether the tablets that were used on Starliner would be iPads like everyone else, or Android.... They're windows tablets.

And there's the soft landing, maybe next time it'll end in a catch?
