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.

They've got a lot of knowledge to build upon, and they are running with it. This nation was created by pioneers, not settlers, and it was a damn shame my generation had to watch as we retreated to low-earth orbit in the '70s.

My first reaction was that they had spliced in some footage from a 1950s sci-fi movie; but it was in color.
