SpaceX launches Thaicom 8: second attempt [text translation] [first landing landing successful]

A couple of dozen hours ago, for technical reasons, the launch of the telecommunications satellite Thaicom 8 was postponed. Initially, the launch of the Falcon 9 rocket was scheduled for May 27 at 00:40 Moscow time. But due to minor problems, he was first moved to the end of the two-hour launch window, and then completely on the spare (next) day.

The new time is on May 28 at 00:39 Moscow time, about an hour and a half after the post is published. The usual ordinary commercial launch of SpaceX will end with the landing of the first stage of the Falcon 9 launch vehicle v1.2.

A few minutes before the start of the web video broadcast will begin. Inside this post is a text translation of this event.
