Space Exploration megathread
Since a number of cool things are happening in space exploration these days, we'll widen the scope of this thread a smidge. Conversation about all things space exploration are welcome, whether it be from NASA, SpaceX, ULA, Blue Origin, or anyone else. Chances are most of the discussion will still be about SpaceX since they love to make things public and fun, but nothing's off limits. I'll eventually get around to modifying the OP to include resources for other companies too, but in the meantime, feel free to post any cool stuff you run across.

Hopefully it doesn't take TOO long to get some high quality video. The burn has to be incredible.
Yeah, the only thing I could really see was a fireball until it was on the deck.

Fantastic! Getting the hang of this. Wonder how much difficulty(if any) the dark adds to the landing.

Btw, downloaded a new app called "Space Launch Now".

Allows me to set up notifications based on launch company, provides details on each launch, and gives you multiple live stream links.

He's about to have the largest fleet of privately owned space vehicles. (actually, probably already does) Wonder if they are going to launch used rockets for the Mars mission in '18? Would make it a hell of a cheap demonstrator, using equipment that's already been paid for.

Good orbit, good deploy. And with that, I think I can say good night.

It was pretty exciting to watch it live. As in past launches, the camera kind of cut out due to interference, so it was pretty much black (pause) glow (pause) bright light (pause) black (pause) slow fade in to the Falcon sitting there and just hanging out. No big.

That was cool though. Man, I love these things. Lower probability of success than last time and....... bullseye.

I can't imagine that it matters. It's all math in the end. And mechanics aligning with that.

I may make it into space before I die afterall.

It's simultaneously exciting and sad that this is fairly mundane, but here ya go. Shots of yet another landed rocket.
