I think it was the 50th landing of any SpaceX booster, not the 50th landing of that flight's booster.

It was visible from Fort Myers, FL, mile 139 of I-75 basically! 140 miles away. H Dra is the star in the pic! Not as stupendous as the old Shuttle launches, but was able to spot stage separations, and follow flight for almost two minutes!

Men have no business being in space.

Looking forward!

Good job humans!
