Good luck, SpaceX!

Also, they just said they planned to re-use the first stage from the CRS-8 mission "later this year." Cool.

That view of it coming in for the landing on board the rocket was fantastic.

And they landed it again. Amazing.

Holy shit, I launch the web stream late and there's a 1st stage sitting on a fuckin barge.

Good job, SpaceX.
 
Good work!

This is getting too easy, next time try on a smaller barge, or maybe have lasers shooting at the rocket as it descends! ;)

What's with stage 2 now?

It's gonna coast for like 10 minutes now before re-igniting the engine and deploying the satellite.

Those video cutouts give the conspiracy theorists something to discuss.

Yeah, except they have long-range shots from the tracking plane that show the whole thing.

And judging by the earlier stage 1 cam, they probably have a video from on board all the way up and down, which I really hope they release.
