Possible SN15 test today. Flight termination system has been fitted which is one of the last steps before tests.

Also has clearance to try for zero G height of tests but cant see it going more than 10km.

Not sure you know. With only the landing to sort, being higher, assuming they try it straight up initially doesn't make a massive difference. Either way hoping it works this time.

I’m just guessing they wouldn’t want the extra variable in there till they stick the landing but they will need to keep stretching other tests while they nail it I guess.

would be a good thing to test for sure to see how the ship handles it.

Fair play to Musk though.

His constant failures make him put them right and eventually he gets there.

Fire out. Been classed as a successful lending.

Despite that looks like it's landed correctly.

The design looks like an industrial sized dildo mind.

The problem with Elon is that if one doesn't work he just throws money at it and buys a new rocket. I want to see him do it with a footpump, tap water and a 2 litre pop bottle.
