    Those things can house a school bus, and are returning from space. It's amazing they can catch them at all, and like their rockets landing, they are the only ones actually doing it. Of course it's easier when you are your own customer and don't have to ask a customer "hey mind if we try something experimental when we launch your billion dollar satellite?"

    I have watched this a couple of times now. I just caught in my last watch through the wake behind Ms. Tree. It's pretty cool to see the automatic maneuvering that the ship does to catch the fairing.

    :anonymous: I meant the slo-mo video that was posted. I watched the background of the video to see the ship's wake.

    I think I just object to use of the name of the book - ignoring the aviation history and test pilot heritage is kinda wrong.
