Man, when that booster shut off its engines on the chop sticks, I burst into tears. What you just saw, is "impossible". Amazing!
I remember when the Challenger blew up, so seeing this rapid advance after decades of stagnation is so moving. My generation missed out on Apollo, but maybe we can see Starship.

Congrats SpaceX engineers, incredible bunch of humans.

I've seen the catch on several channels: on all of them the phrase was "Are you kidding thought the same.
When brilliant engineers are encouraged to push the envelope by a completely bonkers boss (wonderfully bonkers) this is what can happen: progress in large strides.

[ajcart]

It was very emotional! Good to hear you Marcus.

[Tinman_]

Never in a million years would I have thought the precision of this catch would be so accurate! Hats off to all of SpaceX and their dedicated employees!

Congratulations SpaceX on succesful ST5 and making history

[myronp]

History was made today.Tomorrow is now.Great launch and recovery.I watched it many times and it will only get better each launch..Bravo Space X

[KBowWow]

SpaceX is so far out ahead that New Glenn is attempting drone recoveries, and Space X just made that technique last year's model.

[andyo]

Stunning. Stunned. Engineering genius. ❤

[hydrogenbond]

Today is a historical day. Everyone will remember this absolutely unbelievable achievement.

[rseyedoc]

This will go down in history as the turning point for interplanetary exploration.

[raytribble]

Marcus had that shock tone like a UFO just landed in his yard while a yeti riding a unicorn delivered his extra pepperoni pizza

[colinc]

Thanks Marcus! Thanks Lab Padre. Been following this story since the water tower flew with a single raptor. Today, I cried. I will never see something that turns me into such an emotional wreck again in my lifetime. Thanks so much to you guys for giving me access to this wonderful story.

[smavtmb]

WOW! THEY DID IT
That was mind-blowing 😮

[StarlancerAstro]

I can just watch that over and over and over and over again

[keithpenny]

I've just watched both your stream and EA's and I just love how SpaceX managed to make you both SPEECHLESS! 🥰(especially Tim!!!) now that's more impressive than the catch! but what a day. I am exhausted. SpaceX effing NAILED IT! it's time to fight the red tape. Nerd revolution has arrived.

Now you have some idea of what Apollo landings were like. I was 6 at the time of apollo 11 landing.. It change my life. I went on to earn a B.S.E.E and a M.S.C.S and will tell you this event will inspire thousands of children to study S.T
E.M. subjects.
