At T+6min40sec, during its descent, the first stage passed very close to two large pieces that were descending at a much lower speed.Were these the fairings under parachute by any chance?

Are there plans to remove the large shuttle launch tower from pad 39A ?

But something big for sure, two large pieces at T+6min32sec precisely. Just replayed it.

Could it have been the small nose cone? It seems pretty far back all the way near KSC.
That shot of the SpaceX logo scrolling upwards past the LUT... Remind you of anything? :p
