ASOG will soon be taking the place of the droneship Of Course I Still Love You which is moving to the west coast.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-14947\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OCISLY moving the west coast will allow SpaceX to recover boosters out at sea, rather than relying on the less efficient return to launch site landings or discarding boosters. OCISLY left Port Canaveral on June 9th and made its preparations for passing through the Panama Canal at Freeport Anchorage. Gavin Cornwell has been tracking its journey. Due to the odd size and width of OCISLY, it was loaded onto Mighty Servant 1 for the passage through the Panama Canal. This unique ship is able to submerge itself, for OCISLY to get into position, then raise back up.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OCISLY, onboard Mighty Servant 1, has been waiting in line to cross the many locks of the Panama Canal for a few days, and today is the day. The Panama Canal and others have been sharing stunning images of the Droneships journey.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">\n<iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" class=\"\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden; width: 0px; height: 0px; display: block; flex-grow: 1;\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?creatorScreenName=derekiswise&amp;dnt=true&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=eyJ0ZndfdGltZWxpbmVfbGlzdCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOltdLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X2ZvbGxvd2VyX2NvdW50X3N1bnNldCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOnRydWUsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdHdlZXRfZWRpdF9iYWNrZW5kIjp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6Im9uIiwidmVyc2lvbiI6bnVsbH0sInRmd19yZWZzcmNfc2Vzc2lvbiI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfZm9zbnJfc29mdF9pbnRlcnZlbnRpb25zX2VuYWJsZWQiOnsiYnVja2V0Ijoib24iLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X21peGVkX21lZGlhXzE1ODk3Ijp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6InRyZWF0bWVudCIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfZXhwZXJpbWVudHNfY29va2llX2V4cGlyYXRpb24iOnsiYnVja2V0IjoxMjA5NjAwLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X3Nob3dfYmlyZHdhdGNoX3Bpdm90c19lbmFibGVkIjp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6Im9uIiwidmVyc2lvbiI6bnVsbH0sInRmd19kdXBsaWNhdGVfc2NyaWJlc190b19zZXR0aW5ncyI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdXNlX3Byb2ZpbGVfaW1hZ2Vfc2hhcGVfZW5hYmxlZCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdmlkZW9faGxzX2R5bmFtaWNfbWFuaWZlc3RzXzE1MDgyIjp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6InRydWVfYml0cmF0ZSIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfbGVnYWN5X3RpbWVsaW5lX3N1bnNldCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOnRydWUsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdHdlZXRfZWRpdF9mcm9udGVuZCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9fQ%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1408465375935746062&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fspaceexplored.com%2F2021%2F06%2F25%2Fspacex-droneship-ocisly-passes-through-panama-canal%2F&amp;sessionId=a4df35bcf6cae3fd58b57dd608aec0d990fefb80&amp;siteScreenName=space_explored&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=6a3ad42b224df%3A1778106238597&amp;width=500px\" data-tweet-id=\"1408465375935746062\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\" data-twitter-extracted-i178332075968338267=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Due to its dimensions, the autonomous spaceport drone ship OCISLY transited through the Neopanamax locks aboard a semi-submersible transport vessel. pic.twitter.com\/zl8nloObEO<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 The Panama Canal (@thepanamacanal) June 25, 2021<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As OCISLY continues its journey to the Pacific Ocean, you can keep an eye on its location via the ship tracking of Mighty Servant 1.<\/p>\n<p>\t<span class=\"outbrain-ad-label\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\t\t<script type=\"text\/plain\">\n\t\t\twindow.adSlotsConfig = window.adSlotsConfig || [];<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\tadSlotsConfig.push( {\n\t\t\t\tslotID: '\/1049447\/Outbrain',\n\t\t\t\tslotName: 'div-gpt-ad-outbrain-ad-14947',\n\t\t\t\tsizes: [300, 250],\n\t\t\t\tslotPosition: 'mid_article'\n\t\t\t} );\n\t\t<\/script><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n\twidth='100%';\t\t\/\/ the width of the embedded map in pixels or percentage\n\theight='450';\t\t\/\/ the height of the embedded map in pixels or percentage\n\tborder='1';\t\t\/\/ the width of the border around the map (zero means no border)\n\tshownames='false';\t\/\/ to display ship names on the map (true or false)\n\tlatitude='9.0800';\t\/\/ the latitude of the center of the map, in decimal degrees\n\tlongitude='-79.6800';\t\/\/ the longitude of the center of the map, in decimal degrees\n\tzoom='17';\t\t\/\/ the zoom level of the map (values between 2 and 17)\n\tmaptype='0';\t\t\/\/ use 0 for Normal Map, 1 for Satellite\n\ttrackvessel='306812000';\t\/\/ MMSI of a vessel (note: vessel will be displayed only if within range of the system) -
