Another Falcon 9 intermission

[Snidely]

The reuse fleet leader Falcon 9 for SpaceX was briefly Booster 1062.
Briefly, because the landing included an unplanned fireball and a rapid
disassembly of one of the landing legs.

No doubt you're already read about in your favorite textual source, and
viewed and reviewed the video footage over and over, but here's a
couple links anyway:

The investigation is still underway, but under a finding of "not a
danger to public safety", the FAA approved SpaceX's return-to-flight
request. Booster 1069 launched and landed it's 18th flight, about 48
hours after B1062's last attempt, from Cape Canaveral. B1081 is less
than an hour away from an attempt at Vandeberg.

B1081 has completed it's 9th flight and landing, and the second stage
is looking good as of SECO-1.
