Job well done, boosters!
That was impressive. I haven't felt that way since the 80's and the shuttle launches.

I'm going to watch it with the kids on youtube tonight on the 4k

Wish we could have seen the center core land. Seems like they would have a feed from the platform ship as well as on the core - which they explained would probably cut out due to vibration. Wonder if something went wrong there...
I hope it’s ok!

Or even a 2nd ship a mile away filming the core landing.

Still haven't heard anything about the center core. Seems like they would have updated by now.
Seeing some tweets saying there was audio of “we lost center core.” Not sure what “lost” means, but I’m guessing it means destroyed.
Sad, but those other two...[emoji8]
Unbelievable! Gave me chills when they play Bowie and then showed Starman in his Tesla leaving earth!
So awesome!
So awesome!
It was a really emotional event. Exhilarating!
I love to think about all the kids inspired by watching today.

This has revolutionized space access and in a big, big way. The amount of payload it can carry, the cost, the re-usability, the private sector doing this, and on and on.
Major props to Musk and all of SpaceX for this accomplishment.
But I'm not sure what is more impressive. The fact it was a success or the fact I was able to stream the live video onto my phone and watch it while driving to get the kids.

This was great, watched it with the kids, my teenager said it looked fake, I agreed, the flames looked CGI. Super cool. My 3 year old was yelling the countdown and clapping as it went to space. Totally brought me back to watching rocket launches in kindergarten back in the 80s.

The center core was going faster than expected, so that might be what caused the possible loss of it.
