Booster separation during the #Vulcan launch ... but as ULA is just confirming in x.com/ulalaunch/status/2021893 and e.g. bsky.app/profile/derek.space/p and bsky.app/profile/gewoonlukas.b had already noted one of the boosters had suffered some anomaly - which however didn't affect the mission.

The recording of the independent webcast #Vulcan launch - in which they are discussing the SRB nozzle malfunction from t 2:25 onwards (i.e. starting at 1:13:30), eventually showing lots of different angles on the debris falling from the rocket. ULA hasn't said yet whether the payload has reached the proper orbit, by the way.
