Yes, although one booster engine failed at the start. Not a big deal. :)

The nice thing about SpaceX’s rapid iteration philosophy (and having Starlink as its first “customer”) is that they can account for engine unreliability by building extra margin into early launches, fly with reduced payloads, collect data on failures, and improve the reliability over time.

They said ahead of time they were shutting one booster engine down to test redundancy.

They did that too, but they also had an early engine failure. No big deal, they're redundant, and the booster they caught during flight 8 suffered worse.

		Yes. Looks like it ignited and ran correctly for the first few minutes though.
