That booster landing was an absolute bullseye! Put it right in the ten ring. Smile

Now that we have a successful launch, I want to see the footage of them in the cockpit at liftoff.

The antenna on the drone landing ship often gets interference from the landing rocket itself, so it's pretty normal for it to cut out just prior to landing and then pop up with it sitting there.

WOW WOW WOW what an exciting and historic launch. Really makes one proud to see something so exciting and positive take place.

How did you see it? Neither of the TV channels I was watching actually showed the booster landing. There was a "F9" error right at the moment of landing. I was very upset.
