Isn't that thing supposed to be reusable? Can they really clean that up and repair it for less cost than building a new one? It looks thoroughly scorched.
The first and second stages of the launcher (Falcon 9 rocket) are planned to be reusable. This will lead to an entirely reusable rocket system. The Dragon capsule is planned to be re-usable as a whole or in parts at some point in time. There isn't much info on this.

The telescope will be 4 times the diameter of the current biggest optical telescope - so big it should allow direct imaging of Earth like planets round other stars.
I don't know why but I love air launches.
It's a 04:00 local time launch so we won't see much.
