Sorry about putting it in the wrong sub-forum.
The Falcon 9 launch was very successful and looked nominal.
Initially there appeared to be some issues with Dragon as inhibitors on 3 of 4 thruster banks kicked in and went red. The inhibitors tend to be safety mechanisms to protect the system overall from damage and when in proximity to the station prevent thruster firings.
Based on Elon Musk's twitter (https://twitter.com/elonmusk) reports everything is good now and the mission is back on track. Yes, Elon's feed is generally the most up-to-date source of information on mission status.

Comment by themittani himself would be noted.
Also, Scott Manley's KSP videos are fun to watch.

I got to watch before leaving for work, it would have been awesome to see the deployment from the upper stage. No luck, glad they resolved the anomaly.
