- description: This is the webcast for the SpaceX Falcon 9 / Dragon launch for October 7th, 2012 (10-7-2012). The video begins at T-00:10:00 and continue through to the end of the webcast, post orbital insertion. The rocket did appear to suffer an engine problem at roughly T+00:01:20, but the other engines were able to compensate to complete the mission. The Dragon spacecraft is scheduled to dock later this week. UPDATE: Regarding the anomaly at T+00:01:19, this is SpaceX's official statement: "Approximately one minute and 19 seconds into last night's launch, the Falcon 9 rocket detected an anomaly on one first stage engine. Initial data suggests that one of the rocket's nine Merlin engines, Engine 1, lost pressure suddenly and an engine shutdown command was issued. We know the engine did not explode, because we continued to receive data from it. Panels designed to relieve pressure within the engine bay were ejected to protect the stage and other engines."
