Landing would be icing on the cake. I'm already happy!

Well that's not a good sign.

I wonder what will happen with this booster. SES has said they want a chunk of it.

Was cool seeing the parts in that one video. They looked really clean and totally new.

I think the landing legs and interstage were the only parts that were 100% replaced.

Waiting for the other pad to be finished. Can't make the modifications to support Heavy with a launch every few weeks I guess.
