A great day for space flight in general. I honestly believe this flight was second only to the moon landing.

I’ve seen dozens of launches from my backyard here in east central Florida, but looking up and seeing the first stage powered up and returning to land was a new one for me. Awesome... Congrats SpaceX!

well, there’s 30-40 million dollars Space-X just shaved off launch costs. That’s a freekin yeehaaah moment! $100/lb, here we come.

Question...that last piece that spat out the satellites, does it retro fire and burn up or does it stay in orbit with the constellation?

Awesome! That’s a lot of whooping and hollerin’ you never saw on NASA missions.
What’s with the video graphic of the rocket going over the Empire State Building? Did the first stage burn only go for 1,000 vertical feet?

We were sitting on a pier across the Indian River from the launch site and got to witness this historic event.
Great launch, but the exciting part was to see the separation of the booster and it's controlled decent back to earth. Landed safe and sound. Then two strong sonic booms.
Amazing, absolutely amazing.

a great day for private space flight. Yes indeed. Well done, Space X!
