Looks like Starship finally made it to orbit successfully! On track to do a landing burn in about 1 hour.

Issue with cargo door, so they can't deploy the dummy Starlink satellites.

Booster seems to have made a hard landing in the ocean, but they weren't attempting a land recovery anyway.

Fuel leak caused Starship to spin, so reentry is not looking great.

Oh well, still another very expensive baby step forward.
