• What a fantastic launch, landing, and Sat deployment.  Congrats to SpaceX and all others for a wonderful launch.
  
  WOOT!!

• Congrats to SpaceX on making the launch and landing look easy, fantastic job!!!
  
  Now I'll finish my Lagavulin as every time I've had it for a launch, they have landed successfully!

• Wowza - I genuinely did not believe that stage would survive. I kept waiting for karma to catch up with us and the Mvac to blow up on relight or something!
  
  Cheers to SpaceX for making reusability just that little bit more repeatable today, and for pushing it with that three engined landing burn.

• Many congratulations SpaceX on a successful launch and deploy and very impressive landing.
  
  With another S1 landing scenario ticked off, really looking good for routine recovery of S1 in the future. Amazing

  A bunch of true professionals at SpaceX tonight!  Congratulations on an awesome flight & recovery.  Looking forward to the next milestone you wow us with.

• Congrats!!!  So awesome to see.  The future is now.

• Congrats, SpaceX, on a super-impressive high-thrust landing burn! Getting the video from that should be insane...
  
  
  ...and recovery of a booster from a sizable GTO launch is a huge deal. It means reuse is going to threaten the giants.

• Congratulations to spacex on mission success. Waiting to see the landing gets boring and refly of used stages in the soon future. I am in China but it's really exciting to watch the launch.

• Congrats SpaceX for another landmark landing and congrats NSF for such a great coverage! this was the best wake up for work in years

• Successful launch, successful landing, successful second stage burns, successful deployment - lots of success, which is always a good thing. Well done SpaceX!
  
  Also, very amused to learn that geosynchronous orbit is at an altitude of 2.3 zillion km!

• Congratulation on nailing all the objectives!

• Congrats SpaceX!

• A hearty congrats to all at SpaceX, especially for running a completely successful hot entry profile to stage 1 recovery.  This really opens up recovery on missions with the largest manifested payloads to GTO, and proves out performance capabilities for FH with center core recovery.
  
  An important technical achievement, well done!

• Wow! Congratulations!

• With separation, I think it's safe to call that an incredibly successful mission - just like the last one!
  Nominal engine performance all the way through - just like the last one!
  First stage back on a barge - just like the last one! (although I'm guessing that the video of this one is going to be a lot crazier due to the fast entry)
  All separation events going off without a hitch - just like the last one!
  
  There are a lot of things that get boring when they're the same time and time again, but I'm thinking success isn't one of them.  Splendid job by everyone at SpaceX and JCSAT - I can't wait to see another stage coming into port!

• Congratulations SpaceX and thank you for inspiring me!

  The Giants are already dead.

• Boring? Are you kidding me?
  
  "We don't expect to get this one back" then BAM.
  
  Nice job, SpaceX! Congratulations! Robert Heinlein (and Iain M. Banks) are smiling down on you.

• Guests back on shortly. We never went down, but I couldn't risk it with Mark not around.....the surge at S1 landing was frightening!
