Falcon Heavy just got moved back an hour, 7:26ish central time
Falcon 9 launch about 20 mins ago went without a hitch, SpaceX has really made the launch game unexciting with their reliability. It's not a bad thing at all
Landing the boosters standing straight up on a small drone ship still blows my mind, and it's become a "regular" happening for SpaceX. The immense research, testing, and calculations that go into landing a booster from space on a tiny ship is insane, almost unbelievable

once again moving the Falcon Heavy launch further back in the launch window... hoping to avoid bad weather

and several developmental Falcon 9s were lost testing this procedure
so when people laugh at a developmental Starship & Super Heavy blowing up during a launch... just point at that and laugh back at them

they've proven they can land the boosters, but most of the launches the payload is so heavy they don't have enough fuel leftover to land the boosters
