TESS is now 171000 km above the Earth as it continues to coast towards apogee. There are very few satellites this far out.

For those who value precision: Official launch time for TESS yesterday was 6:51:30.196 pm EDT. Info previously provided to us by NASA and SpaceX media reps had the launch time a second later.

#SpaceXNerds: Two days to shore the fresh load up on OCISLY. Making better time, now, after another stop since. Payload fairing chaser, Go Pursuit, leaps in front of the pack. #SpaceXArmada

TESS now passing 245,000 km altitude as Kepler's Second Law slows it down on the crawl to apogee, which it will reach in just over another day

That, my friends, appears to be a complete half fairing on board GO Pursuit. Quick grab off my preview screen. Some of the Falcon 9 has arrived at Port Canaveral #SpaceXFleet

GO Pursuit, with what appears to be a complete fairing half on deck, arrived into Port Canaveral approx. 3:15 am EDT this morning. In a few short hours we should be seeing OCISILY being led in by Hawk and GO Quest after cruise ships are safely docked. #SpaceXFleet @SpaceX

TESS now at 258000 km above Earth's surface. The Falcon 9 second stage is much more distant already, at 488000 km, beyond lunar orbit.

OCISLY is pulling up to the SpaceX dock. This starts a race against time for the recovery crews. B1045 is currently scheduled to be flown again in just over two months during the CRS-15 mission. This would be the fastest turnaround of a #Falcon9 first stage booster.

Close up of OctaGrabber, via @ThAerospaceGeek's photo. This robot aids stability, avoids crews having to wait to get onboard to chain (and weld) the booster to the deck. Helps turnaround and safety. Typical "SpaceXer at a meeting" solution: "I know, how about a robot!?"
