How did you like that? HOW DID YOU LIKE THAT!!! Game face all day and I'm not ashamed to say I'm now in tears.
GO DRAGON!!!

Please express our deepest congratulations to all the members of your team.

I think your team has done a service for Commercial HSF, NASA, the international community, and humanity. As you said, Go Dragon.

Adding my voice to the chorus congratulating SpaceX on this historic achievement. Great work!

Praise for NASASpaceflight.com, too! Without this site, coverage of current spaceflight would be a lot less illuminated.

Mike notes that per historic events this rates at the top because of who SpaceX.

Notes it was a perfect flight up to the R-bar with the LIDAR.

"As a country we should be very proud."

Wants to thank the SpaceX team, and a ton of people started cheering!

"We love you Elon."

"We love you guys too"
