SpaceX launch and landing at Vandenburg Calif

Just watched the SpaceX launch and first return of a booster to Vandenburg AFB SpaceX facility. I never get tired of watching the booster return. Great video coverage of all aspects of the mission, which has become a hallmark of SpaceX launches. With boosters now able to land at Vandenburg it makes the 24 hour relaunch prep feasible as it basically lands right next to the launch pad at the SpaceX part of the facility. Barge landings in the Atlantic require a return delay.

Just watched the full 15 or so minutes of this. It's amazing. What Spacex is doing is great but furthermore, the coverage is incredible.
