B1060's sixth flight delivered 60 v1.0 Starlinks to the 53° shell - and marked the debut of the recovery vessel Shelia Bordelon, which retrieved both fairing halves from the Atlantic. SpaceX had abandoned the net-catch program in late 2020; the Bordelon, purpose-equipped for wet fairing recovery, was its purpose-built replacement.
