Good, clean launch, return and spacecraft deploy there, guys! Well done!

A few hairy moments during just after the end of the re-entry burn - the residuals coming out of the centreline nozzle looked like they'd had a propulsion failure but everything went smoothly in the end. I've never seen LZ1 so clearly during final descent either!

Not long ago it was basically guaranteed that SpaceX would need a couple tries to get off the pad. This launch was the easiest looking launch yet. One shot to get it right and it all goes off without a hitch, including recovering the first stage and live video of all the events.

Bravo SpaceX and congratulations to all the employees who have poured their hearts into these vehicles.

Beautiful launch and landing. SpaceX sure makes this look a lot easier than it is. Dragon is on its way to the ISS.
Congratulations to SpaceX and everyone else involved.

Congrats SpaceX on another successful launch and landing.

Thank you to the team at NSF that updates the forums during a launch. I am travelling today so unable to watch the launch video stream but I can get updates through the forum as the launch proceeds.

Congratulations to SpaceX on a really smooth launch and landing. The speed off the pad looked great and the landing was as good as usual and even more picturesque on the descent video.

Thanks as usual to contributors for the coverage at NSF; just for a change I could follow live but it's always great for catch-up and review.

Congratulations to SpaceX, NASA, NSFW, and everyone else involved in the launch! Enjoyed the nice smooth boring launch and fantastic landing. Looking forward to the next one!

Congrats on another tear-jerking landing! How could there be any SpaceX detractors left?
