Reminder to everyone that you should be able to catch ISS flying over tonight. It's around 9:20pm here in Denver, but check your local area.
Normally, you'd check here, but NASA's servers are probably getting hammered right now. https://spotthestation.nasa.gov/ I use the app "ISS Detector." I'm hoping that Dragon might be bright enough to catch it trailing behind... |

This high resolution video of everything is so cool compared to the old pixelated space footage we got in the past.

Back in the day the timing was just right one summer night when the space shuttle had just finished it's mission to the ISS and had backed away but still fairly close. We could see both of them flying together.

That rocket parked itself on the drone ship better than some people can park their cars at the grocery store.

Anyone know if the stage one gets lashed down on the drone ship or does it use boosters to stabilize? That thing looks like it would topple over in any kind of choppy water.
