Anybody know?
Are all three first-stage boosters scheduled to tail-land after launch? Now, THAT would be fun to watch!
Yes - the two side Falcons will land at the Cape and the center one on a barge at sea.
Anyone know what tech the boosters use to tail land.
Musk said the launch is guaranteed to be exciting, and that any outcome that doesn't destroy the launchpad will be considered a win. The center booster has the same engine configuration as the outrigger boosters, but had to be reengineered to support the much heavier payloads. That propulsive landing will be the one to watch, it's heavier and will take more energy to decelerate. The likelihood is, if the FH continues to be used, it will always be landing on the barge, for that reason.
