This bit gave me goosebumps, the synchronicity of it.

Just imagine what would be capable with direction of resources into projects like these.

Oh I was hopping we would have teh trans Mars injection burn live. But sadly not.

Freakbro · 6 Feb 2018 at 20:58

I was actually more impressed by the synchronicity of the trajectories of the two boosters into their landing approach - the precision was at another level. Though the landing was stunning as well.

That was genuinely amazing! For all the ills in this world at the moment you have to stop and take not of what Musk is doing and will continue to do. A genuine modern day hero!

I didn't realise the roadster would be open to the elements! That is legendary!

Omg what a time to end the stream!

Shocky-FM · 6 Feb 2018 at 20:59

Wow, watching them both land simultaneously was amazing.

Did the core land successfully?

The ''oh our drone ship cameras turn off' is a tad ridiculous, stick a camera on a boat and record from there for goodness sake

Nate--IRL-- · 6 Feb 2018 at 20:59

Gotta agree with everyone else, that was brilliant. Feels like Science fiction the way they landed.

I know right!!

Now what, many years in the wisting. Now it's over. Rest of night is going to be boring.

F5 Twitter waiting for centre core update. And injection burn in about 6hrs time.

Zefan · 6 Feb 2018 at 21:00

Words can't describe how awesome that was :cool:

Housey · 6 Feb 2018 at 21:00

Fantastic performance by any measure, incredible to watch.

I dont think I have ever watched something that has given me such feelings of tension and jubilation.. and sheer gigglefits with the synchronised landing.

Skillmister · 6 Feb 2018 at 21:02

Hairs standing on end and a huge grin on my face when those boosters landed simultaneously. Truly outstanding work by everyone involved
