@Benzinga I didn't take anyone's car and never would. Car was actually allocated to engineering test (not by me) and inadvertently sold. — PolitiTweet.org

My best guess for 2016: ~70% landing success rate (so still a few more RUDs to go), then hopefully improving to ~90% in 2017 — PolitiTweet.org

Falcon lands on droneship, but the lockout collet doesn't latch on one the four legs, causing it… https://t.co/DpXsRQWal9 — PolitiTweet.org

@stunt_penguin @LayOn_OverWhale Stage 1 would reach low Earth orbit if not hefting a second stage, but payload would be greatly reduced. — PolitiTweet.org

@JimmyVosika Actually, didn't get environmental approval in time, but it was also good practice for missions where a ship is needed. — PolitiTweet.org

If speed at stage separation > ~6000 km/hr. With a ship, no need to zero out lateral velocity, so can stage at up to ~9000 km/h. — PolitiTweet.org

Ship landings are not needed for flexibility or to save fuel costs. Just not physically possible to return to launch site — PolitiTweet.org

As mentioned before, ship landings are needed for high velocity missions. Altitude & distance don't mean much for orbit. All about speed. — PolitiTweet.org

Well, at least the pieces were bigger this time! Won't be last RUD, but am optimistic about upcoming ship landing. https://t.co/w007TccANJ — PolitiTweet.org

However, that was not what prevented it being good. Touchdown speed was ok, but a leg lockout didn't latch, so it tipped over after landing. — PolitiTweet.org

Definitely harder to land on a ship. Similar to an aircraft carrier vs land: much smaller target area, that's also translating & rotating. — PolitiTweet.org

Tap your phone or key and your car will open the garage door, exit, close the door and come to you. Will do same in reverse for unsummon. — PolitiTweet.org
