For some reason I found it really cool that it was immediately gone into the overcast.


I didn't! I was irritated that I couldn't see anything, so then had a quick scoot to see if the NASA feed would show the on-board view (unlikely!) before coming back again to miss the first stage separation!

The landing through the clouds, on the other hand, I did appreciate. Once my irritation has subsided, anyway!


I recommend watching the Hosted Webcast on one device and the Technical Webcast on another. Either mute the Technical Webcast or have it on lower volume. They're both easily found on YouTube under SpaceX.

I did this for the previous launch, Iridium-1, and was treated to unbroken views live from the first stage on the technical stream, while the hosts narrated and switched views more frequently on their stream.


Oh, that's a good idea, thanks! Next launch!

Yesterday I was stuck with just my phone though, so my 'alt-tabbing' was particularly tortuous :)
