First Stage Landing Video

Below is a look at the original video data from the first stage landing, recovered from the Falcon 9 onboard camera and shot right before splashdown:

Our software team has spent the last week trying to repair this footage--below is our best effort so far:

In an effort to see if the video can be improved further, below are links to both the original data file as well as the repaired source file.  The file labeled “raw.ts” is an extraction of the raw MPEG bitstream from the rocket. Our software team attempted to repair the data, resulting in the “repair1.ts” file, and the partial video above.  We welcome anyone to download the raw file to make improvements directly—if you are successful, please contact us at media@spacex.com.
