  • 5:00 some burning debris visible
  • 6:30 end of plasma
  • 10:30 strange flip , may be reoriented before second dive to atmosphere.
  • 14:00 second plasma
  • 17:42 active atmosphere guidance phase starts
  • 19:45 - drogues deployed . first two thumbs a probably a lids
  • 21:00 drogue cut, main deployed
  • 21:31 mains fully opened
