Amazing SpaceX 1 take launch & retro-landing

 


I find this years one-take clip of a launch into space, payload delivery, turn and relanding quite remarkable. Possibly the most amazing part is landing on that tiny bullseye landing pad from such a height without a chute, without toppling in reverse and without missing.

The clip of the entire process is under 2 minutes. Below is a great 12 minute disection if you want to know a detailed commentary of what exactly happens.  It must be recognised that in terms of engineering and tech that this is right up there with the very best mankind can produce, so I've blogged it for posterity.
