The Super Heavy booster at the launch tower, as well as. 654321. Vehicle is pitching down range. Booster Raptor shimmer pressure nominal. Booster and ship avionics, power and telemetry Nominal field just a little over a minute. Maximum dynamic pressure about 6 miles away. So all the sounds still hitting us here, hearing good call outs that power telemetry nominal, that's flying straight and true. We do see all 33 Raptor engines lit up on telemetry screens this
point. We've passed through that point of maximum aerodynamic pressure that Max Q now coming up in just a little over a minute from now is going to be hot staging. So we're going to see the six engines on the ship a night while still attached to the booster. Just before that, we'll see all but three center engines on the booster shut down and what we call Miko, it's most engines cut
off instead of main engine. And so while we continue to watch it go up a lot of our flight controllers looking at all the systems around the tower again, we have to send a manual command just about 30 seconds away from hot staging. And we heard, we heard the tower is go for catch. The return flag is set for true ship engine start up stage separation. All right hot staging confirmed 6 out of 6 lit on the ship booster boost back going. We heard that we are go for catch Kate Jesse take other
views. Hopefully I got a booster coming home real soon. Wow. From our view here, Dan, great views of planet Earth behind that super heavy booster. Right now it is performing the boost back. Burn. Good news there, telling us that the the pressures inside the ship are good. That is the second stage or the upper portion of the vehicle. Follow along with the telemetry on the bottom of your screen. Yeah, Booster is currently a super heavy, is currently in its boost back burn, this boost back
burn. Economics Power Telemetry Nominator. This boost back burn lasts just a little bit over a minute. So we've got a little approximately 30 seconds left we've. Had shut down of that boost back burn. Next will be hot stage jettison the view from the camera on the left or from the booster on the left hand side of your screen and then tracking Cam there on the right hand side of your screen. We'll see those grid fins. Booster. Offshore divert.
And we can also see that the hot stage has been jettisoned. Yes, visual confirmation of that there on your screen, which is great. Now the next. Starship is following a nominal trajectory. The next step for Booster is going into that landing burn again. It'll light up 13 of those engines and then pair down to three engines right before Booster. Catch all right. Now just real quick, we did hear the call out boost back or excuse me booster offshore divert.
Unfortunately that means that we are no go for the catch. As we said before, both the tower and the vehicle as well as the operators on console have been actively evaluating the commit criteria for that return to the launch tower and unfortunately we did not have a pass on those commit criteria. So we are no go for tower catch. And we did mention that we're constantly evaluating the criteria for catch.
There's a lot of things that need to go well in order to line that up. Unfortunately, today we will forgo booster catch today. But what you're seeing on your screen is ship currently making its way towards the Indian Ocean. Still looking good so far. Exactly. So views there of the booster on the left hand side of your screen, views of the ship on the right hand side of your screen. Now we said before that it was not guaranteed that we would be able to make a a tower catch
today. So, well, we were hoping for it. Like we said, it was pretty epic on attempt one. But the safety of the teams and the public and and and the pad itself are paramount. So we are accepting no compromises in any of those areas. Exactly. And we're still going to get a lot of good flight data with booster even but especially with
ship. Again we have an additional objective today to do an in space relight of a Raptor engine which again will help us set us up for being able to do deorbit burns which? Is chamber pressure phenomenal? Which which is important for orbital flights, and what you're seeing on your screen is a view from Super Heavy as it's making its way back down to Earth. Yeah, Once again, we are attempting an offshore landing of the Super Heavy booster.
So we have seen this before and it is still very fun to watch. Watching it come down for a soft splashdown off the Gulf Coast of Texas. We can see it there re entering. We saw earlier those grid fins. There are 4 hypersonic grid fins. So we can see that the landing burn has begun on the Super Heavy booster. And same pattern, 13 engines will light gone down to three just as we expected. And. What an incredible view of Splashdown that we got today.
Super heavy, yeah. I'm sure the BUI Cam views will be pretty awesome once again, so we'd like to confirm a water landing once again for the Super Heavy booster. Congrats to the SpaceX team for making that milestone as well. Now ship continues to look good. We can see that it is while all. Of that. Was happening the ground here in Hawthorne continuing to react to all these amazing views that we're getting? The next milestone is *.
Trip is in terminal guidance. Great news there, Starship terminal guidance referring to what we see here on our screen, the upper stage at about 8 minutes 35 seconds or so, we have ship engine cut off, which will be the cut off of the the the rafter engines we can see on our screen ship giving us some incredible views brought to us by Starlink.
This view is also very interesting because we can see basically the receding tile line that we referred to earlier where we mentioned we have removed a number of heat shield tiles in order to test out and push the envelope on the ship and demonstrate what its capabilities are. Ship engine cut off. And there we just heard call out for Seiko ship engine cut off. Great news there. Everything continuing to look awesome for ship. Full view looking at on ship here.
Trip FTS is saved nominal orbit insertion. There's that call out. We were waiting for confirmation of good orbital insertion for ship today. It has been a very exciting afternoon so far. We'd like to send it back over to Dan who can give us that live view experience. Dan, once again, are you OK after witnessing another Starship launch? Yeah, totally fine. It's you guys have to be jealous. This is the only way to do this. This is fantastic. No, it was really cool to see a
lift off. 33 out of 33 didn't go for the booster catch today. Initially we were good and then we tripped to commit criteria and did the offshore divert. So we went and did that water landing as everybody saw. We'll dig into it a little bit more, but again, this is we've done it once. We've now done it twice. We're going to keep trying to do it as this is just a core capability of Starship.
