#621st stage turned around then exploded. Second stage is doing well so far. Edit had the second sentence wrong
Super Heavy/1st stage exploded after separation and turn. The important part, Starship/2nd stage, was doing fine but appears to have been eaten by the Space Ghoul around T+10 min.
Yup, typo

#63Does anyone know how the start was filmed? The first shot was a drone, but after that it nearly looked like either cgi or another rocket flying next to it.
Video feed switched to ground tracking cam.

#66There's a direct media stream that VLC can open (with network stream): https://prod-ec-us-west-2.video.pscp.tv/Transcoding/v1/hls/O... ---- Much better quality, slightly better latency. Seems like it comes from the Periscope transcoding infrastructure. Found it on reddit here: https://old.reddit.com/r/spacex/comments/17uyblj/rspacex_int...

It's literally from Twitter livestream; they are just re-skinned Periscope.
You can even replace highlatency to lowlatency for better latency.

#68Did anyone else just see something fly down on the stream? About T+8:30. I wonder if it was part of the exploded first stage.
I thought I saw an explosion but they seem unsure
