I have my disagreement in relation to the hubble telescope because 1 billion kilometers from the earth would take 10 seconds to send a photo of the lacteal path to the land, knowing that the speed of light undoing the square root has about 99 million kilometers now 1 billion light years already changes a lot, don't you think? the light would be the only thing fast enough to send data, that is, the light being fast the universe is so big that the light takes a while to reach a certain place in the universe then the universe is farther than the light itself

It's harder to feel that way because it's so far outside my everyday life. I watch in awe, but I hope soon enough it won't be awe but that same tangible thrill as flying.

Hands down.. One of the coolest things i've ever seen

[@LoanwordEggcorn]

Absolutely incredible with the native sound. Best thing is the sigh at the end. Indeed take a breath after your journey.

[@sjosephmann]

Love the Audio! Adds a whole new experience. Thanks, SpaceX team!

[@andrewkhassapov]

It is absolutely awe inspiring what humankind can accomplish! Watching this 550+ tonne feat of engineering Falcon 9 launch and land successfully is one of the most incredible things I am so happy to be able to see in my lifetime. Thank you, SpaceX, for attaching this camera. Next stop, Mars!

Well done. For those with short attention spans this video highlights all of the key points in the flight and gives a good feel for the atttude correction and braking.

1:33 oh wow I like that view of the grid fins

[@AiushnKosaki]

لا تبن لاك

[@nagualdesign]

It's surprising how little they're used, and how much the RCS thrusters are used. I wonder how the weight of the grid fins and actuator hardware compares to the extra mass of RCS fuel that would be required if there were no grid fins.

[@FBDSG]

Really helps visualize the incredible aerodynamic forces they're under

[@assarstromblad3280]

@@nagualdesign I believe the grid fins are MUCH stronger compared to the RCS in atmosphere, so I think in order to replace the grid fins there would need to be much bigger RCS thrusters aswell. They made the decision to use the fins for a reason.

[@gran4404]

It's absolutely stunning. I thought it was so cool to see the engine spring to life right after it's speed dropped below supersonic

[@AnonymaxUK]

I think KZbin didn't process the HD yet

[@Eddy178]

Or most likely the casing its enclosed in is very thick and durable to stand literal rocker flights and speeds over 9000! while being on the outside of the ship, so understandably it gets cloudy i suppose. Also it has to transmit the signal feed live and there are most likely bandwidth limitations and a lot of electrical and ambient interference that might force then to use a lower resolution. Beats watching from afar any day.

[@Poatatero]

KZbin hasn’t finished processing it yet I’m pretty sure

[@JustinLieber]

360p for right now since it was just uploaded. HD version should be there soon

[@RonRay]

I remember watching the Apollo launches from Cape Kennedy in the 1960's from Melbourne, Florida and wondering what if they could land rockets as well as launch them... Now, that is a reality. To watch this now, it is nothing short of incredible! I am blessed to live to see this.
