That was crazy watching the first two boosters come down to land side by side. They were showing bird's eye view from each and they looked identical, were moving in unison. Awesome.

Do they know if the core landed successfully on the drone ship?

Probably lost contact w/ the ship but decided not to end with that note on the stream. Still nothing from Elon or SpaceX about it though some are starting to assume it was lost.

There has ether been a major coms fuck up beyond what's normal. Are it didn't make successful landing and their keeping from announcing it. To let them celebrate the successful take off and booster landings.

First car launched to space.
First production car to break the sound barrier.
First car in space.
First synced booster landing.
First x9000
That is a big fucking rocket, but there is another. The NASA SLS had successful testing and still on schedule for next year. It makes the Falcon Heavy look like a Yugo.
Falcon Heavy 5.1 million lbs of thrust.
SLS 8.4 million lbs of thrust
SLS enhanced 9.2 million and can take 130 tons to orbit. That is when we start building the Enterprise.

That synced landing was just amazing to watch though. SpaceX has a good video on the hardships getting to this point. To succeed you must first fail.
As I learned from Mars Attacks. 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

The core landing was always questionable (for now) right? Like, a bonus if they stuck it?
