So I found out last night from my Dad that he and my Mom sailed past this SpaceX drone ship on their way to Catalina Island last Thursday, February 2!
That's the Falcon 9 B1071 booster...sitting on the drone ship Of Course I Still Love You after the rocket (which has now flown into space seven times) launched from California's Vandenberg Space Force Base on a Starlink mission last Tuesday, January 31.
My Dad took these photos from aboard the Catalina Express and then texted them to me! After docking at the Port of Long Beach—where my parents' boat departed from on its way to Catalina—B1071 should make its way back to SpaceX's headquarters in Hawthorne (about a 22-mile drive down the freeway from Long Beach) to be refurbished for its next flight.
Visit my webpage below to see photos that I took during my trip to Catalina back in 2013!
