This is hands down the greatest marketing ploy in my lifetime. The video is stunning, wondrous.

Still no word on the center stage landing?

It almost certainly crashed, but why taint all the great news?

Was hoping to get an update on that myself.

The 2 boosters touching down at the same time was just waaaay cool

I heard it was a total loss, it was different than the other two boosters and so it was the first for it.

The videos with the earth as back ground are
beyond price as far as advertising goes cause
they aren’t fake.

Drive a Tesla today, it’s out of this world!

I think it just broke the Guiness world record as the highest and fastest production automobile.

No matter the fate of the central booster, watching those two side boosters land almost in formation made tears come to my eyes. Great work by all involved. Note that there were lots of young engineers in that crowd who were justifiably proud. Go STEM millenials!

Hmmm, didn’t see any low-T SJW “professors” of underwater basket weaving and advanced sign painting there. Wonder why?
Oh, forgot, they’d only qualify for janitorial duty (if that), working for SpaceX.

What channel or website?
I checked out space X a few minutes ago. It did not mention a briefing.

There was a CBS article a couple of hours ago, tersely mentioning that the center stage had landed safely on the ship.

Maybe that aspect is defense-related and restricted?
