SpaceX has a 44th successful first stage recovery and a good launch.
This mission will add a second docking port to the space station to handle more traffic from future crew Dragon and future Boeing Starliner missions.

It’s a miracle that’s essentially become background noise. “Oh, another launch and recovery? Yawn. Lemme know when they smash one back into the launch pad.”
And with each new successful launch, the need for the SLS diminishes. And its test flight’s been pushed to 2021, I understand.
Why can Musk do what NASA can’t?
I love that this has become so mundane that nobody is posting on this thread.
Also the video of the first stage landing is pretty amazing. Nice sunny FL day, perfect picture.
