Well that didn't go particularly well. However, the booster was recaptured which is an amazing sight to see but the spaceship had in Space X's words had "a rapid unscheduled disassembly" - in other words it blew up.

Some interesting photos coming in from the Turks and Caicos and Elon Musk's reaction "Success is uncertain, but entertainment is guaranteed!"

and Flightradar 24 have been reporting delays around Miami and Fort Lauderdale Airports due to potential debris.

Blue Origin launched , but lost the booster.
SpaceX launched, caught the booster but lost the rocket.

Did you hear the sonic boom just before the booster was caught ?

If anyone is interested, YouTube …LabPadre space…it’s Gators dockside webcam, catch it at the right time, and you see the boosters being removed from the drone ships, or maybe Doug or Bob are there as well
