For this flight we installed an exo-atmospheric reaction control system (RCS) in the fairing to control re-entry and enable recovery of the fairing.
We’re planning a parachute recovery later this year, and the data from these fairings gives us the learnings needed to develop and refine that capability.

Okay maybe I’m dumb but the added text doesn’t explain anything that’s going on in this video
Ughhh, wtf was that? This is messing with my brain. I thought it was outside the atmosphere and then bam, water.
Edit: I think it’s just edited. But that was trippy
Wiggle wiggle wiggle
His name is Dave Limp…
Wow that sucker really picked up some speed on the third flip there
How’d it get around the superheating of the air?
That’s one hell of a cut lol
Is it trying to slow down by flapping its wings?
The cut happens between :14 and :15 for anyone wondering
