Seeing the two side boosters land side by side never gets old.
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
When you realize that booster landings are better than liftoff
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.
because it is
Lol
It’s absolutely mind boggling how they got the boosters to land perfectly, genius! I’m in awe
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.
Those 2 boosters landing next to each other is the shot of the century
I can hear Elon say "Cameras are cheap, put 'em everywhere."
LITERALLY
Just modified gopros with long range signal transmitters
On a spreadsheet the cameras probably appear as "others".
what minute?
hahaha
Nasa: "It's impossible." SpaceX: "No, it's necessary."
NASA: It's impossible. SpaceX: Hold my beer.

The Berserker you put several times the save thing
This is why blue origin will never be on the same level as space x 3 orbital rockets launched and landed with perfect success.
Side boosters throttling back at MDP and then throttle back up...amazing....the Shuttle boosters just lit and went. What great technology! I'm 69 y/o and grew up in the heart of the early space age in the 1960's and never thought I'd live long enough to see something like this. Mind-numbingly awesome.
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.
The way they landed felt like i was watching some sci-fi movie..
technology is about to go crazy -bill wurtz
thats because it is a movie! its fake including fake applause and you all fell for it!
@@kakyoindonut3213 The technology breakout started in 2015.
@@jimjimsandburg2754 yeah it's technology right?
It is a sci-fi... not movie though but “reality” sci-fi. Every time there an important phase going on the camera cuts out to a shot of the engine thrusters or something to where all we see is fire. What’s up with that?
I still get goosebumps seeing those two boosters land in synchronized manner.
Bro.. wait until you see 2 (or more) starships landing in synchronized manner (on mars) :D
@@NOOBDP you mean fleets of hundreds
We didn't see them land!!!
@@Mpren43 7:35 Well, I need new glasses then...
@@NOOBDP i know lol its crazy. never thought id be seeing this shit happen.
That is just amazing. I'm so grateful to be living in the 21st Century, in this age of private space exploration. It's a good time to be alive.
Private vs. Government. Faster, less expensive, more successful. Way to go, Mr. Musk.
Bro, just thinking about how far we've advanced in just over 100 years blows my mind. From wooden planes to rockets launching into space and landing vertically like this. wtf
From wooden wheeled horse carts and cars you mean. :D
@@Mrbfgray he meant air travel.
Imagine the future
Rockets are much older than aeroplanes.
20 years ago people would have scoffed at landing rockets in the near future!
The shot of those side boosters landing side by side looks like it is right out of a future space movie.
It is.
"Destination Moon" It's uncanny to see it in real life.
it is a movie, it's not real.
@@aaronneathery5445 You seen it,, was there big crowds recording on cell phones,, I never seen anyone that put it up..
Zoom in and look at the waves. It’s 100% fake.
4 years later, still get chills with the side booster simultaneously landing.
I never get tired of watching this, I showed this to my wife and she was also blown away by this, she said that the last time she was amazed like this was when she witnessed the Space Shuttle taking off and landing for the first time, I agreed. I'm not ashamed to be showing our age there 😁😁
For those of us that are older, these vertical landings are remarkable. Something from our dreams of space travel. It's been a long time coming.
For those of us that are younger, its also remarkable :) So glad to be alive in this era.
Better late than never.
@@nat3llite - What the hell is your problem? You can't be a little positive.

@@dennisweifenbach2647 I think you misconstrued my comment. This is video moves me so much and makes me so happy. I just wish we didn't have such a long hiatus in space travel advancements for so long.

@@mummitrollet1 wHoOsH HaHa I WWHOOSHED YOU !!1!
Starship actually has to belly flop and flip to land
Dang
i just tear up with the biggest smile on my face every time I watch these boosters land. The most inspiring event to witness in this generation.
4 years later, I still get emotional when I see those boosters land. I can't begin to imagine how the engineers at Space X feel. Way to go!
All the earlier failures were used to learn how to finally succeed. Its inspiring to watch this company overcome obstacles with perseverance.
Can I get an amen on this!
@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.
Ken Hernandez unless human is completely irradiated, one day humans will be living on other planets, there’s literally never been a time in human history where going to a different environmental place hasn’t bettered society by a landslide, wether it take 100 or 200 years humanity will probably by then already having small teams living on Mars or the moon, it’s not a statement of if we’re going to live on different planets, it’s when
Ken Hernandez under what reasons do you say that? What is holding humanity back from ever doing it?
Seeing the two boosters landing simultaneously is easily the best footage ever recorded so far!
@Mr. Bose Do you mean the footage of this video is fake?
@@abdullahalrasheed394 No of course not.
Ignore them, they just want to stay with mama. World are changing but them still believe on Cinderella story
Nizam Mdz What do you mean, I legit told him its real.
Mr. Bose but why? Why would they do that?
I remember the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo projects. I've never seen enthusiasm like Apollo had until this. But even more astounding is the fact that this is being pulled off by kids. It used to be Gene Kranz and Walter Cronkite. But now - From flight control to the announcers . . . All a bunch of kids! Good Job guys.
As much as I have respect for Walter Cronkite, he was a news anchor and had had nothing to do with the launch of the Apollo rockets, oh, and by the way, the average for the controllers during the Apollo era was 26 - kids.
What a fantastic time to be working at SpaceX, I was born to soon, would have given almost anything to be involved in this project.
Same.
I can’t explain how good it feels to hear people cheering for something that matters Edit: I see this comment got a little attention, thank you all for your replies. I made this comment because often we forget grander, more impressive matters than politics, social media, and the drama that is our daily lives. Seeing scientists and engineers complete a never before seen task, to me, matters. Not that children starving worldwide doesn't matter, or that public safety and peace doesn't matter. In this video we got to see a bunch of people get excited for something that they believed would affect us all one day. They believe space exploration is part of the next step in human history. Whether you like it or not probability will prove a giant rock is coming to destroy our planet. Might as well understand as much as we can about our universe to preserve the hard work of billions of people in human history on earth. Not sorry if that offends people. Cheer on.

Thanks to the cameraman... great effort. Carrying himself with the rocket isn’t a easy job * ;)
Something about landing the booster rockets instead of dumping them in the ocean is still one of the coolest things ever.
We accelerate in our advancement, space is the final ultimate.
Those two boosters landing is gonna be an iconic moment in space travel history
Parlor tricks. I will be impressed if Elon personally goes to mars though.

@@Boxsteam do you really think a multi billion dollar company like spacex has such bad cameras? Zoom in and look at the waves in the background. It’s not even a good fake.
Here's to all of the skilled and disciplined engineers who made this happen. Musk's leadership is one thing, but your collective capability and commitment is yet a greater beast.
+1
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
@@t.d.phillips7283 true, but this is a private company with very limited funding. imagine what they will be capable of when they get bigger.
These are the only boosters I want to see and/or hear about in 2022.
100 years ago my grandmother was a child and once in a few months an automobile would drive thru her little village in Europe and all the kids would run out of their houses to see that marvel. She lived to fly on an airplane, watch a man land on the moon, she lived to be almost a 100 years old. It's amazing how fast humans are advancing in technology comparing to previous centuries. Too bad we are not advancing that fast when it comes to world peace.
I don’t care how many times I watch this. It never gets old! I’m so privileged to get to see this in my life
White Excellence - Elon Musk is a don
You need to seek medical help
@@frankmcnally01 lmao what are you on about?
@@frankmcnally01 your the reason exactly why elon want to live on mars. I cant believe why people like this even exist we should probably build something where we know how dumb a person is in fetus and abort them before laying waste everywhere.
Clearly you haven't had much of a life then. It's all FAKE. There's no such thing as Outer Space.
Imagine being Elon Musk seeing your rockets land successfully.
Even after some of the people he idolized told him it wasn’t possible, probably felt damn good too land these 3 rockets perfectly.
I'm imagining stoned Elon watching this.
Imagine being a total and utter idiot that believes this ridiculous nonsense

Didn't ever think that Tintin had the right concept with their reverse rocket landing sequence, but space X made it so. Bravo
Every time I watch a Falcon booster land, it gives me chills. No matter how many I've seen, or how many times I've seen that particular launch replayed.
I must admit I get emotional every single the boosters land together. I love this stuff
I know what you mean! I do, too! It's like a moment when you forget all the world's troubles and reflect on such an amazing accomplishment that a team of humans did!
I keep watching these launch and landings over and over again, I never get tired and still feel the swell in my heart when a booster lands. It’s an amazing feeling.
Yeah humanity has flourished a long way....we say about intelligent life out there....but there is a good chance that we ourselves are the intelligent life
I feel you
You're not the only one my friend. I literally have tears in my eyes.
As a grown man i cried watching this ive always said if i can live long enough to see mankind land on mars then im happy
Just hold on a little while brother✊
Seeing this across the river was just unbelievable man! When you don't believe your own eyes you know it's serious!
I agree. I would love to live to see humans walk on Mars. Though it probably wont happen. There are so many technical and economic challenges still to this day. I estimate humans will land on Mars in the late 2050's.
@@justglenn1037 definitely not, even very conservative estimates put it at 2040s at the latest, and that is nowhere near where it will probably be, even if spacex fails, NASA will be sending one somewhere around mid to late 2030s
@@dakotamahlau-heinert3529 I judge the future based on the past. There is nothing expedient about space exploration. 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... I truly believe Musk will beat NASA to Mars (with humans)
Felt everyones emotion, such an amazing accompliushment indeed and thanks to the three host of SpaceX for walking us through with such great detail, calmness and patience. We all should learn a thing or two from them.
From time to time I watch this video over and over, can't get enough of these wonderful landings.
7:35 i've seen this scene plenty of times, but every time i see the double landing by the falcon heavy's rockets, chills goes down through my spine.

I watched John Glenn orbit the Earth on TV in 1962 as a 6 -year-old. I saw the Saturn V launches with Apollo, and the Space Shuttle triumphs and tragedies. Watching these amazing flights I can't help but yell "Go, baby, go!" on takeoff and "Bring her home!" during landings, and get a tear in my eye from pride.
Hopefully you will see us go back to the moon again and mars as well, anyway i envy you my friend God bless you !

They're both possible. NASA is the one who reached Mars and the Moon and they are going again. SpaceX isn't doing that yet.

One of the greatest feats of mankind, watching those two boosters land in sync. another leap forward for man
this is so special. I grew up in Satellite Beach and saw almost all launches of the space shuttle - this is so awesome!!!
I'm 63. I'm very happy I was lucky enough to witness this event. Simply amazing.
Right? I know I'm living in the best of times. I can't wait to see what else happens before the big sleep. I'm not quite 63, but I'm very into SpaceX, the ISS, and looking at astrophotography that teenagers are doing. There's one dude on Twitter @spacebrandonb. You have to check out his Instagram. Just awesome.
Science Fact shakes hands with Science Fiction after it reaches it and says, "I have been waiting for you. Welcome Home."
When our capabilities finally catch up to our imagination. Like with the books of Jules Verne, farfetched fantasy when he wrote them, entirely possible as of 100 years ago with 2000 Leagues Under the Sea, and 51 years ago with Journey to the Moon. really makes you think.

granted....for what? What so spacial were done that was never before?
I tear up watching any launch, and have since Apollo 17. Have faith in future generations.
@Zo Kay SpaceX is a private company idiot. You aren't giving a penny of your tax money to them and the they aren't responsible for the development of education or healthcare system anyhow. It's the duty of government. But of course you'll still be ignorant and make arguments without having any knowledge.
@Zo Kay See how stupid you sound?
You're not the only one. It's quite emotional.
7:47 is where SpaceX established its fame. Well done Elon and your team.
Humanity can do beautiful, awe inspiring things sometimes. This video is possibly the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.
Paco de Lucia said once that you know you're in the presence of true greatness when you see something executed with seemingly no effort... when it "looks easy". He was talking about musicians, but I believe it applies to this as well. Falcon Heavy launches will always mean something special to me, since the last thing I watched with my mom before she passed away was when Elon sent his Tesla Roadster as ballast when they tested it for the first time. These things bring back some hope for humanity.
It's refreshing to hear people excited about technology like this and not about football or basketball or sports in general.
You'll never convince me that wine is better than Pepsi

Someone : How many cameras do u want on your boosters? Elon : *Yes*
Not funny
@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?
I was on the beach this year when a launch went off. The sound when the boosters came back was one of the loudest I've ever heard. Amazing.
What an amazing synchronized landing! Worth watching over and over again. A big salute to EM the genius and his team for the great Success. as he said, "just keep going"!
This actually gives me hope for humanity. Genuine tears. Elon is a true visionary of our time, films will be made about that man.

Seeing the beauty of the planet from all those camera angles was fantastic enough but just watching those 2 boosters landing pretty much at the same time and then the final booster coming down, I got emotional just watching that. It's all done autonomously now and it's just fills my heart with joy how far we've come technology wise and we're still advancing faster than ever
The landing of two boosters looks like a scene from a SciFi movie. Incredible. Congratulations! 祝贺！
It does!
My thoughts exactly. 👍
Watching the boosters land simultaneously I think will never get old. Thank you Mr. Musk for all the pioneering work you have accomplished earning you a prominent roll in the history of our country and our world.
hm.....but what kind of pioneering was ever produced by Musk? What did he creat really first time in the world?
@@GodAdministrator you pioneer in being a troll, your comment would not be possible without you
@Donovan Campbell I'm sure wouldn't be possible. Becouse nobody was needed such things. For example reusable boosters. He created fashion on them. But no real need
@@GodAdministrator true NASA and SpaceX should listen to you honestly. You definitely should replace Elon Musk
@Donovan Campbell Resourses has to be saved! No doubt... Thats why we use another MW of energy to produce and transport tons of fuel we use only to land an empty tank. Then we use energy to move this tank to special place there we use energy to check this tank for any damage from previouse flight. Then we use energy to clean it. To paint it. 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... And after that we close all finance reporting so no independant accountant could check do we really save money and resourses on our "reusable" spacecraft! Wonderfull idea don't you think?
The most thrilling space exploration moment since the moon landings.
WOW. WOW. WOW!!! Congratulations! This never gets old, I love it. Take a bow. Bravo Zulu.
Damn that is just incredible reusable rocket boosters that land themselves this is just some real space age shit
I'm sitting here in my kitchen contemplating how the team that designed this system could cover all considerations in order to produce a successful result. Mind officially boggled. 🤯 Smart people raising the bar of what is possible. Bravo!
Congratulations to all involved! When I was a kid, I watched Neil and Buzz walk on the moon LIVE. I think you all are doing some amazing things these days. Please keep up the good work.
I watched this live and I watched it today too. The feeling of excitement was almost the same. We will never forget this day
Watching those boosters land was god damn impressive. Then the center core landed. Bad ass. Great Job people.
If you are reading this remind yourself: we went from barely walking upright to this. Let it sink in. Our species has so much potential if we just don't get in our own way. F-ing amazing all around.
Yup. Sadly, our potential to destroy ourselves grows exponentially as well. In just 80 years we went from "being able to make a war once in a while but not much more" to "capable of obliterating all life on earth few times over in a few hours". Imagine what superweapons we will have in 200 years

I'm so proud of my two brothers who has been there and put it together for a while and I really appreciate them so much for doing a great job on this one
As crazy as it is, i think this moment was one of the most amazing in human history. I'm thankful to be alive to witness this.
I can't wait to see starship and super heavy do this!
I am an automation engineer, every time i watch this, i get goosebumps, this is supremely difficult to do, Elon musk is a hero for all engineers.
I am a physicist and I am right there beside you my friend!!! The goosebumps always happen!!! Partly because watching this is always awe inspiring AND equally as you've said "...this is supremely difficult to do...". The magnitude of difficulty is beyond most people's knowledge and comprehension! I suppose one can assume it is difficult but that is nowhere near the same thing as understanding why and how it is! It is an absolutely amazing time to be alive!
You do realises he just funds the thing he isn’t involved in the physics or engineering part of it he is just a billionaire who thinks he’s cool just cuz he bosses around a bunch of scientists A real role model would be one who is both a scientist intimately involved with the process and spearheading this whole thing Elon Musk style.

2+ years later and I still get goosebumps! wow!
When I was a child a spacecraft was placed on top of an airplane, what an amazing time to be alive
When I was a kid, this was only in the movies.
@FAKHRI ARRAZI you know what else is in the movies ? evil robots
It still is, 100% fake
@@frankmcnally01 what is fake?, the Falcon Heavy?
@@frankmcnally01 I was there and watched the boosters land with my own eyes, how could you possibly be so backward to argue it's fake 😂😂
@@frankmcnally01 look, a 250
I know I'm not the only one who randomly decides to watch this🧍♂️
Same
What an amazing landing. I am overwhelmed and emotional at this wonderful sight. Beam me up Scotty.
Best money shot we’ve come to achieve as a human race in 2020 years. Synchronized booster landings. Never gets old.
Elon: “let’s put cameras everywhere” Them: uses half of the cameras
You're lucky to get half given the punishment they have to endure flying to FUCKING SPACE AND BACK camera's are notoriously sensitive equipment and even the most heavy duty ones break down far more than you think. Hell they're lucky they even got the boosters back at all.
They have to get rid of the ones with aliens on them.
@@Marsproject11 extreme heat from blasting engines to extreme cold from the emptiness of space. That's some crazy cameras they got.
@@ovadyarachman7243 You are only proving my point, even cameras designed to take such things can very easily break down due to the rapid change in temperature, odds are at any launch you may lose feed from some of the cameras because they are not indestructible.
@@ovadyarachman7243 actually, a hot thing in space will cool down way slower than in atmosphere. There just isn't enough stuff around to absorb the heat. The ISS even uses large heat radiators to get rid of excess heat.
Watching those boosters land never gets old and always gives me a warm spot in my heart filled with pride. God Bless Elon Musk and everyone else involved that makes this happen.
Bill Randolph, Yes sir....I am 68 and remember how exciting and incredible the Apollo Program was. I have also been a big science fiction reader of Asimov, Clarke, Heinlein, and so many other top notch writers and loved reading the stories of Man's journeys and adventures among our own Milky Way Galaxy and even beyond. Watching those boosters land back at the base and on the sea platform is like something right out of those stories and I cannot help but get emotional whenever I see it. Only in a free country where people are free to pursue their dreams without the oppressive hand of a government dictating their lives, can this be possible.
@@marbleman52 Yes Sir you are RIGHT! Countries like Pakistan and Iran are so consumed by hatred and spreading terrorism that they will never know how wonderful science and space exploration can be. Their Idea of space exploration is if they can build an ICBM to hard others. Sorry didn't meant to go there but upset at the moment. Keep believing Sir. God Bless all the good people in the world that wants to make the present and the future better!
So where are the Russians, the Chinese or the Europeans. They hate for the USA to be able to do the job. USA
@@ftswarbill USA are the biggest terrorist the world has ever seen. I've lost count the amount of countries they've invaded
watching them boosters land?? mate it looks as real as the Tesla car that supposedly went into space. FAKE X
What an incredible achievement. I still get goosebumps!! I cant help but think of my favorite SCI-FI authors and their books that I read so many times when I was a kid. Asimov, Heinlein, Clarke, Herbert, Dick, WELLS, Bradbury, VERNE!! They all got us here!!
I watch this over and over. This is the most exciting video and event that exists.
This genuinely left me in awe and I found myself saying “wow” so many times. Simply a marvel of engineering and hard work.
white excellence from elon musk et al.
@@tomdavies9701 WTF are you talking about? The engineering teams are a VERY diverse group from all around the world!! Your comment is EXACTLY how racism continues and is insulting to even read!!!
@@brianwhitecotton6070 Sorry? Of course there is excellence in all groups. I was just pointing out an example of white excellence. Does that offend you? Do you hate White people? You understand, it's a common phrase in Black communities to say "black excellence", do you also get offended by this?
@@tomdavies9701 I am a 58 year young white male. Of course it offends me. We are the HUMAN race, not the red, yellow, black, white race! The color of our skin, these are covers. What matters for all of us is what's inside - we are all red blooded HUMANs. While you think it okay to say something like "white excellence" you are overlooking (or ignoring) the history of (1) horrible treatment and suppression of "black people" (and in some places in the deep south of the U.S., still do though more clandestined than ever - and by D Trump blatantly), and (2) the "Aryan race" intent of Hitler's Nazi Germany was the idea of "white excellence" and all others inferior. Millions of Jewish folk were killed in camps - horrible time in human history!!! So while you may think what you say is harmless, it could be very offensive to a great many people.
@@brianwhitecotton6070 actually the engineering teams are only formed by people from the USA because rockets are considered military hardware and therefore people who are not born in the USA cannot work in spaceX (an American company).
Space-X is doing the impossible. They are a space dream come true!
@@victorsousa7239 I understood that reference
Victor Sousa how is that necessary if we don’t even understand ourselves
Elon is a cross between Tony stark and interstellar. He never gives up and always makes the impossible possible
ELON MUSK IS SECRETLY DUCK DODGERS.... WOW
@@victorsousa7239 Indeed. If we're ever to go back to Space, it will have to be as a commercial concern. It is simply too expensive for governments to keep footing the bill forever.
Seeing this a bit late I realise - but this made me cry (tears of joy) - I have no idea why? HIGH EMOTIONS I guess? The last time I saw a take off like this was the Apollo missions. It amazes me how an object as thin as a pencil can land UPRIGHT in perfect balance?? Mans ingenuity never ceases to astound me. Will man EVER settle on the moon? Will mankind reach Mars? I am getting too old now so I will probably never know OR be watching from way up there myself anyway!! CONGRATULATIONS SPACEX..............SAFE FLIGHTS.....HAPPY LANDINGS..
It's simply amazing.. just watched a launch tonight as I've done since the 70s from my front yard... I still cannot comprehend how they can land a tube upright on a pad... It's incredible
Even after crew dragon demo2 flight, this still send goosebumps.
I am old enough to remember the suspenseful excitement of watching the Apollo missions on our black and white tv. I even got an autographed picture of Neil Armstrong back in 1969. It's good to see the younger generations excited about space travel like my generation was back in the day. I think it's in man's nature to always reach for the unreachable. It keeps our spirit alive and young.
God, that's so damn cool. What an impressive feat of engineering and perseverance.
You have usually only seen something like this in Sci Fi movies, so seeing this take place in real life is very cool and impressive. I am also happy that Elon Musk was the one to make it happen!
Watching this makes me so emotional that I sometimes can’t believe what an amazing species we are when we have a common goal. Inspiring to believe what’s possible if we can get past issues that are useless to society
jan munce absolutely true. And 99% of humanity don‘t even realize how insane human life is, and even worse, they destroy humanity.. sad
To leave this planet and move to a new one should be all of humanities ultimate goal .
Amazing species they are not we are! Not many are that intelligent to even come up with the idea of this. Or send any man/woman to space
Right tell that to the people that are rioting and killing..it makes me sick. But yes it gives me hope as well..
