Congratulation to SpaceX, especially launching 2 (or even 3) rockets at the same time, some of them even invisible and only the flame visible *kidding*

Nice boring launch after all those holds in the last attempts
It wasn't boring at all, I still held my breath! ... and I'm actally still holding it.. waiting for 2nd stage relight...

Restart successful!
Be successful.  Then tell the haters to (BLEEP) off. - deruch
...and if you have failure, tell it anyway.

I will be extremely surprised if they manage to launch Thaicom in 2013.
