It's ridiculous how easy those landings look these days. I've missed having descent video.

It moved. Not going to lie and no shame.

This is one of the coolest shots they've ever gotten. Audio is fantastic as well.

I knew that it comes in at quite an angle, but it looks like damn close to perpendicular to the ground!

Good article on the ULA/BO marriage. Just in general, I'm a big fan of Eric Berger. Give him a follow for good space content.

ASDS #3 is out and looking like a beast. From what I understand, this one can drive itself - no tug required.
