I can't believe they actually had buoy cameras out there for the landing (and that it hit the mark).
I wonder how far off we are from reflying a booster. Obviously the Ship is going to take some work, but the Booster looks like it's close to ready for operations. |

Nice views! Were those just from a phone camera?

Sucker really came in at an angle. I was afraid it was going to hit the tower.

Yes. I was with my wife and her SpaceX colleagues on premises SpaceX owns (and have constructed employee river houses along the Rio Grande).
