Spectacular. Musk launched his personal Tesla in it with a dummy behind
the wheel. It will remain in solar orbit forever. Funny.

All three booster rockets returned to earth, two landing at Cape
Canaveral and one on a barge off the Florida coast. Couldn't see
the one land on the barge because the video feed was disrupted but
I understand it landed also.

I thought the sight of the two landing simultaneously at Canaveral was
almost as spectacular as the launch.

Me too. SpaceX has come a long way in a relatively short period of
time. Not to knock the accomplishments of NASA over the years but
Musk and Co. are making history. Love the sign on the Tesla dash.
"Don't Panic". Ha!

Also heard confirmation that the third (core) rocket landing on the
barge offshore was also successful.
