Cores lost signal because of the vibration when landing on a sea platform in previous launches too, didn't check the news yet but it most likely survived.

Core didn't survive

That core booster approached the platform as planned, but it unfortunately hit the water going 300 MPH and was lost, because some of its return engines failed to light.

Thats a pity indeed.

Damn, I was afraid it was so. Still a 90% win in my book.

98% win then, the thing cost a ton, and most of SpaceX innovation is cheaper space travel, so this is important. The ultimate goal being near total re-usability of modules.

yeah, Musk said Falcon Heavy cost 90mill which is 30mill more than Falcon 9, and can hold twice as much weight

Do you think that aliens passing by will find the car design and drivers suit to be distasteful or they'll dig it?

they'll probably find it distasteful, especially because he's driving through space with only 1 hand on the wheel.
