Its landing in the middle of the night, full of darkness, somewhere in the ocean, in a boat, with bulleyes accuracy. How fckin cool is that.

[@juggadaaku4219]

It’s insane how fucking regular this is

[@alexbracht]

I love that there is no commentary! Hearing an explanation of Max Q or a repeat of what's heard over the launch net has gotten really old IMHO!

[@garylester8621]

AWESOME. Still.

Saw this in Richmond, Virginia at 5AM yesterday morning.

Potentially SpaceX could start a team like service, phone voip service like vonage or web phone service like skype. That may already be in the plan?

[@Vincent.M.Chern1905]

alrighty, there are even no cheers and applauds these days. What a tremendous but nowadays-regular progress.

[@alanmacification]

Another bullseye landing. They've really tweeked that guidance software.
