[ExI] musk catches one

[spike at rainier66.com]

I spoke to a good friend and former colleague about the launch, particularly
the recovery.  He said the chopsticks which caught the booster tracked with
the vehicle on landing, all of it part of the control system.  Elon swung
these chopsticks which weigh as much as a dump truck, to track with the
gently descending booster.

 

This former colleague watched this and realized Elon just whooped our asses
(he's still working.)  But he was able to just admire what a cool landing
system it is.

 

Check this video.  Is this cool or what?
