    SpaceX put up a bunch of Starling satellites last week.

    It was the 15th landing for this particular booster.

    It was the 58 successful landing of a booster THIS YEAR.

    It was 158th total successful landing.

    Just amazing that it's become routine.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        @George-K Indeed it is. And, while risk is always there, the more they do it and realize what testing/checks and routines work, the more reliable it becomes. Almost like a math equation.

              Seen on a blog..."And SpaceX landed another booster on a barge in the middle of the ocean. Ho hum...."
