    Axshually, it looks like SpaceX does a better (more accurate) landing.

    I doubt that the landing today would have been good enough to land on one of SpaceX's drone ships.

      Very cool. Yeah that drone shot during the landing (and takeoff) almost looked fake! So good.

            Is it just me, or does that thing look like a knob?

            I was only joking

                Sorry, I should have said 'Is it just me or does that thing look like my knob?'.

                    Apparently not! (Which I must admit is a bit of a relief. Er, bad choice of word)
