That sea is a lot rougher than I thought would be suitable for a landing. Pretty impressive.

I was bummed that the live camera cut out during the landing a couple of days ago. There was basically nothing there, camera cut out for 10 seconds and then it came back on and there was a rocket sitting there.
Thanks, Rich

It cut out for just a couple of seconds, and then it was just there......I didnt see any smoke, debris, or steam.......

More impressive than the launch IMO. Indeed. Consider in our lives we have gone from struggling to get one into the air successfully, to bringing them back with that degree of accuracy. I think it’s just amazing. Charlie

I've got a buddy that just accepted a job with his competition ...they plan on launching a flight of tourist every other day.
Please keep your hands and legs within the ride at all time. Do not tamper with the safety restraint or try to open it before the ride has come to a complete halt.
We all need to practice Whoa more.

I wonder how many failures they went through in perfecting that landing. A few. They all mysteriously lose communication now right before landing... Just like Saturdays. Figure it is due to public reaction if it fails and takes away from the main mission or competitive secrets. Same with separation of 2nd stage it goes dark for a few seconds.

It was more impressive when the two Falcon Heavy boosters landed on the pads in perfect sync last year.
