They showed the pad. The feed cut. Then the rocket was there.

Is this your first launch? They’ve been landing on the ship and on the ground for a while now.

I think it’s the rocket booster that makes the camera frick up.

Let’s not go full retard.

I would assume the feed cuts out because, well, a rocket is landing on it and the feed isn't visible at that time.

The feed cuts out on the drone boat everytime at touchdown. They've had quite a few explode on deck so I don't think they'd try to cover that up brah.

As the rockets fire to slow the landing it shakes the barge and it usually loses the satellite link. They still have the footage of the landings but you don't usually see them live on the barge. The boosters (not used in this launch) land on land and that feed has never been cut.

It always cuts out as the rocket approaches. Interference and shite. The full video will be made available later.

I've watched that a bunch of times, and it never gets old. It's so damn cool.

Yes they’ve been landing on boats and barges for years now.

Both the boat and the barges are owned by Louisiana companies.

Well they’ve had uncut videos of their rockets landing, so I trust that it probably did so.
