We've just watched the live retrieval process, fascinating and amazing. Even the dolphins were interested in what was going on.

For those who never tuned in live you can scroll fast forward to 1hr 14min & 16seconds.
Not sure on a phone but on my computer I can 'grab' the timeline bar on the bottom of the video & go bit by bit fast forward.

These reusable rockets have revolutionized the turn around time.

Soon, they'll be catching the Chinese satellites and bring them home to see whats inside.... if they haven't already
