Given I think it was supposed to be in orbit a bit closer to Mars, I'm not sure if Starman made sure to have asteroids covered under his insurance.
It seems like the central booster may have ran out of properllant and crashed next to the drone ship.
But everything else worked, which is great. I was hoping to see it from Tampa, but a few too many clouds in the way. |
