Awww no landing.

Did it crash or no video of landing?

No, the above article says they didn’t even try. No landing planned.

They also didn’t launch yet :wink:

Sorry life got in the way so I didn’t update this yesterday, the static fire got pushed to today for another attempt. Launch pushed out to possibly the 14th (I totally had the wrong date on the title)

Updated some news and links, I do the best I can lol
