The camera from the first stage is pretty cool.
I hope they upload the full landing clip from the rocket's perspective.

That camera angle was great, and probably the scariest thing I've seen in a while with how quickly it was dropping. Hoping they release the full footage from descent (even if it gets cloudy)
4 landings.. 3 on the ASDS.. 2 of those being high speed GTO.
Short of them relaunching, I'm calling this endeavour a success.

I think this also makes the landing success rate 50%.
