Worth going to read it all there!

A lot of upgrades, fixes, and changes to the flight profile this time around. Impossible toevaluate it all from the outside, but I think there’s an air of cautious optimism that they might pull off the complete mission this time.

Mike Borgelt: You might be right. I based my post on what I read at the link. It is also possible it was tested but SpaceX plans to do it again.
