Not sure exactly but the feeling I got is the waves were at the upper limits with possibly some excedences. Winds I would think have less of an overall effect on the landing because the vehicle descends so rapidly. The waves and ocean currents are much more an issue as that drives deck angle, ability of the platform to stay in place etc.
I had a dream the other night that SpaceX and Nasa had started daily launches to and from Mars. In my dream it was about a 28 day journey. It was kind of like the old west. The government was deeding plots of land on Mars to families willing to travel and colonize it. SpaceX was supplying all of the habitats and materials. In my dream Elon was giving a safety meeting on the surface of Mars. I don't remember the details but it was about Martian weather and that there had already be settlers who had died.
What a misleading title ... The price difference has been known all along, not a surprise. I sure hope ULA is doing some serious sole searching though to figure out what niche they are going to cater to
If things go perfectly performance wise there is a good chance of hitting the barge. Be very cool if they can stick the landing with a high performance required payload
