Can't tell which side booster is which! lol Minor details right now though. Bottom two are side cores. Top left is center core.

Astra.Xtreme Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Maybe it was just the camera angle, but it looked like it kicked sideways all of a sudden.

DevTech Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Why is there no camera feed from the vehicle as it moves further away to the point we see the entire planet?

I'm hoping that there will be some live tracking available for the car. Some way to see where it is in its billion year orbit. Live video feed from the car would be incredible, but technically challenging I'm sure.

Because the Earth is flat. Or because that's a lot of dataflow that would be pointed at a satellite that's not designed to take incoming data from that direction.
