I don’t see the point of a transcript for these, btw.
Very impressive, thanks for posting.
Secret? Then how can we see it here??
They aren’t spying on who you think they should be.
Speculation is it’s “a next-generation naval signals intelligence platform,” not your run-of-the-mill Talent-Keyhole stuff.
‘Heavens Above’ will have more detail in a few orbits (provided it doesn’t do like ‘Misty’ and disappear).
How big were these nails landing in Florida? 10 penny?.................
In the Orlando area, my brother and I caught a glimpse of the booster during its return to the Cape for landing.
