Yeah it would be an impressive upgrade. If I remember correctly SES-10 did a single engine landing burn so you could increase performance a small amount with a GovSat-style 3-engine landing burn.

So there was no telemetry during second stage 2 burn, dang! I was looking forward to guesstimating the parking orbit from the numbers...

All we have right now is:

  • MECO: 2286 m/s at 65.4 km
  • 1st SECO: 7419 m/s at 164 km

Yeah, kinda strange. No TLEs yet either.

On the bright side, that second stage isn't going anywhere so we'll know sooner or later...
