P.T. Barnum would have been proud. "This way to the egress."

It seemed they spent about 30 minutes trying to eliminate some leftover chemicals. Seems to have been a bit ... unnecessary as technicians were hovering around poking at stuff for a while BEFORE two guys in SCUBA tanks showed up.

I appreciate the caution since this WAS the first time. I’m sure they will work on this before the next launch.

But that fluster cluck at the landing site . . . I think they need more Coast Guard to keep the area clear. That could have been ugly if something had vented post landing.

I guess a TFR doesn't work for boats...

No, but there was also a Notice to Mariners from the Coast Guard.
