Wow!

Pretty gutsy landing so close to the next one...imagine NASA skyisfalling

Also imagine NASA even thinking about Three, that are pretty much, back to back tests. Yeah, right. hahaha

Looked like one engine was late firing up for landing...dunno.

They overcorrected and swung the pendulum too far.

To paraphrase an old skydiving maxim, out of ten kilometers of fall, it's that last centimeter that hurts the most.


SALUTE TO ALL!

They sure wait until the last minute to complete that maneuver. Fuel constraints plus wind conditions is my guess for that happening.

Well, some of the blown off parts might be reusable, it's a start... biggrin

Not making fun of them, it's cool to see the willingness to "trial and error" their way, same as with the Falcon 9 which now routinely does amazing things.
