US regulators on Friday cleared SpaceX to restart launching
its stalwart Falcon 9 rocket, as a probe continues into a
rare mishap this week during a first-stage booster landing.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) grounded the
Falcon 9 rocket on Wednesday after a first-stage booster
tipped over and exploded while attempting to land on a
droneship off the Florida coast.
The early morning launch was otherwise successful
. . .
   All good.
   But clearly they need to look for signs of fatigue
   on the landing legs/bolts/etc ... indeed some Chinese
   counterfeit bolt might have accidentally found its
   way into the SpaceX parts bin.
   The SpaceX business model depends on re-using boosters
   many times. The loss of even this one sets-back their
   launch contracts. They also lost a 2nd-stage engine
   module in orbit a few weeks ago - but those are not
   recycled.
