Just watched a launch for the first time since maybe the mid-80s... that was cool as hell!

Same here. The simultaneous landing was awesome.

No word on the center core apparently. Hopefully we hear soon, but even if it didn't make it for some reason, I don't know how you could call this anything but a HUGE success. Crazy.

T+28:22 from the press kit. Odd that they aren't covering it at all, but I guess we just have to watch Twitter for news.

And then, somewhere around T+6 hours they'll try and start it up one more time.

Core should already be down. Camera went out on the ship. Don't think it made it...

Any word on the middle booster yet?
