[i]Eutelsat satellite has been deployed into a nominal orbit. ABS satellite has been deployed into a nominal orbit.[/i]
[i]Ascent phase and satellites look good, but booster rocket had a RUD [rapid unscheduled disassembly] on droneship. Looks like thrust was low on one of three landing engines. High g landings very sensitive to all engines operating at max. Upgrades underway to enable rocket to compensate for a thrust shortfall on one of the three landing engines. Probably get there end of year. Landing video will be posted when we gain access to cameras on the droneship later today. Maybe hardest impact to date. Droneship still okay.[/i]
