Diogom I LOVE the SRB separation shot.
The rest are enjoyable, but that one was king.

What earth texture mesh package are you using? It looks stellar.

Good morning everyone, welcome to this launch coverage of Dragon-14, the next resupply mission to the OFSS-II. It's very early here but both the launch team and mission control have worked hard in these early hours to get this mission going. This missions flight director is IronRain. This is the first time that he is in charge of a mission to the OFSS-II.

T- 10, 9 ,8 ,7 ,6 ,5, 4, 3, 2, Merlin ignition and lift-off, of the next resupply mission to the OFSS-II.

Here is a look on one of the camera's that is mounted on the launch vehicle. This camera is mounted on the bottom of the second stage.

We have Max-Q

MECO and staging confirmed... second stage ignition confirmed.

Dragon-14 should now have its first orbital sunrise.

SECO confirmed.

Separation confirmed! There was a small software glitch that prevented Dragon from separating but quick thinking of some flight managers solved the problem. Dragon is now on its own.

And one of the flight managers here in the flight control room reports that the solar panels are deployed and that the batteries are charging.

This was todays launch coverage. Dragon-14 will now chase OFSS-II. Docking is scheduled for Sunday 24th of July.

ky, on your reentry shot....did you just set AoA autopilot in AeroBrakeMFD and ride in at 20+ G's? lol

I'm guessing that because that shot looks like mine did before I started using GlideslopeMFD

Although I've read the post that OFSSII will be closed, I docked Dragon-14 before I had read it so here are the screenies

Note: I had to retract P3P4 before I could berth. I also tried to berth Dragon with the SSRMS (during the ''station keeping'' shot) but I wasn't able to get the SSRMS to move.

The brief moment which make the station visible for a couple of seconds

P3P4 deployed again. Dragon-14 has arrived!
