An amazing achievement. And I agree, it is a humbling experience to watch those boosters successful landing.

Kinda missed that part from the current launch. Still cool to see the center core land.

First time I saw one of the videos of the boosters landing, I thought it was fake. Amazing. Very proud for Elon. Congratulations sir!

@@dustinwalden7091 I would love to see them figure out a way to prevent the video from cutting out as it touches down.

@cyberfloater Why would they do that? To see nothing? Yikes

LITERALLY

Just modified gopros with long range signal transmitters

On a spreadsheet the cameras probably appear as "others".

what minute?

hahaha

Because the shuttle boosters were chemical rockets. The shuttles engines throttled down just like the falcon engines

Since the Shuttle boosters were solid fuel, there is no possibility of a throttle.

yeah it isn't, Clark.

SpaceX lost a total of 5 Falcon 9 first stage boosters before successfully landing one. Not exactly genus.

​@@lamarw7757 Except it is. The fact they lost some shows how hard something like this is to accomplish. Every piece of amazing technology had its failures. It's through those that the amazing systems we have today have become real.

Oh it's those miracle side grid fins. They work like an arrow's feathers especially when the rocket is backing down tail first at low speed. Those grids have all of 5 pounds of air pressure to maneuver the craft with, all located at the heavy end. That oughta do it.

​@@lamarw7757 I don't care how many of them failed. Failure is the only road to success, and they've succeeded, which everyone else said was impossible.

All my life I've thought a liftoff was the most amazing thing a human can watch, until I saw a booster landing.

I never saw an Apollo takeoff but that had to have been outrageous.

grew up watching shuttle liftoffs for breakfast. all of them became boring but one.

@Ken Hernandez you realize how much money one of those cost right the ability to retrieve it and reuse it will save so much money.

@Ken Hernandez this guy is saying that they spend on *unnecessary* stuff, what a clown. but what they did is to innovate and make ourselves as human to live in multiple planets and soon other galaxies too. as u are appointing this towards the space-x, next time think how many failures and successes they've achieved and money that they've burned just for us humans lives and not extinct. think twice next time m8.

These engineers are truly inspiring! Elon does deserve praise as a visionary leader, but it takes a talented team all working in unison to take a vision and make it a reality. Well done SpaceX!

I agree totally with all the glorious comments of the total success, but if you can imagine putting 3 persons in orbit around the moon, then landing two on the moon, and then rejoining all 3 in orbit around the moon and then finally returning all 3 safely back to earth... With what best can be describe as the total memory of a modern smart light bulb... Now you are talking Giants... completed by Apollo 11 July 16, 1969 49 years 65 days prior, not bad for a bunch of geeks with slide rulers...

But lets remember Elon is chief engineer... tye difference that makes his companies from other CEOs whom are just financial knowledgeable but not scientists.. Elon has both Economics and Engineering ams. Self taught computer science

There are instruments and machines for that future trip that haven't yet been invented, let alone built and its already 2021 right now! Here are the cons: radiation, fuel for return trip, food for 1- 2 years, brute danger leaving Earth and entering Mars atmosphere, you would have to send hundreds of tons of supplies to land prior to astronauts arriving, general health of astronauts living in weightlessness and within a high radiation environment. And what about political will... every 4-8 years a new administration slightly tweeks or disassembles NASA's future. We been talking about returning to the moon for 50 years!! I want this to happen as much as anyone, but not for at least another 30 years. Theres too much work to be done before that happens. Heres an after thought...

@Shaun Smith yes I do, and the popularity doesn't matter

Atharv Thakur one...one that works.

And people will still say it’s fake..crazy lol

@Jeanette loveridge So, just because YOU can't do it, nobody else can either? Why on Earth would they fake it - what purpose would that serve? If they failed to recover/land the boosters they would (just) have to build new boosters for the next launch, at considerable expense. By successfully landing them, they can reuse them. So please explain why they would fake something where the success is much cheaper than the failure? Or is it simply because the cameras are so much better now than in '69?

To repair it there needed. Then we have to use more expensive and energy complex materials instead of some simple alluminium ((or such) which will last for several seconds. And so on...
