Dear SpaceX,

this was a very good broadcast, but:

i would like to see the speed and altitude also of the stage 1 when it re-enters. it would be very interesting to see this next time.

Thank you

Great way to start the new year, congratulations SpaceX!

The drone ship is called "Just read the instructions."? Haaahahahaha

[NeuroticLobster]

If the Earth is flat, how come it looks curved in this video? Must be an international conspiracy and CGI, right flat earthers?

[matthewclifford]

Not everyone noticed that instead of "Experimental Landing" it's now "Landing" on the mission time bar.

[leokimvideo]

Holy crap that first stage landing footage was insane. Surely trending page worthy or has this site totally sold out to #disney

[Zaragil]

Welcome back! This never gets boring. :-)

[Rivvern]

Launching satellites to space. Easy.
Landing a rocket from space onto a tiny platform wobbling around on the ocean. Truly awesome.

[Mksterk]

Great, great job SpaceX. Congratulations from the EU. 🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺

Martians are thinking "Why are these humans keep throwing dildos at us?"

[RainHNg]

Congratulation SpaceX, great start for 2017 ! Cant wait for more to come

[DaytakTV]
