Details:
First booster to launch for a 23rd time however the landing did not go to plan. One of B1062's landing legs collapsed immediately upon touching the deck of A Shortfall Of Gravitas. It is unclear whether B1062 experienced a harder than usual landing, or whether the likely cause of this collapse was simply fatigue after B1062's many flights. Very unsure about whether to deem this a landing failure or a recovery failure. If you want to try and convince me either way, please get in touch
