Complete SpaceX Guide Part II - Reusable vs reflown vs expendable, countdown & radio callouts

Welcome to part two of a beginners guide to SpaceX’s webcast. In part one we covered everything you need to know leading up to the launch including what rockets you’ll see SpaceX launch, where they launch from and where land. In this episode we’re going to explain the differences between re-usable, reflown and expendable first stages. Then we’ll break down everything you see on screen during the livestreams right up till the launch and go over the callouts you might hear on the radio.
