        @Avron_p @_Simon_K @SpaceX Unless I’m misunderstanding all the legs are down but, one didn’t fully lock in place & therefore wasn’t sturdy.

        @ChrisDMarshall @SpaceX It's beautiful. Perfectly verticle! Soft landing! Alas, for the leglock....(And three feet from "X marks the spot!")

        @russ_bullock @SpaceX A soft landing on a barge at sea, even if not completely successful due to hardware failure? That's still a huge win!

        @lexcalibur100 @SpaceX it looks tilted away from the camera to me. Would explain why grid fins are pointing the other way to compensate

        @lexcalibur100 @justyooalex @SpaceX the appearance of "tilt" and grid fins is being distorted by the fisheye nature of the camera lens.

        @spacex What if the landing gear wasn’t on rocket. Instead, covered droneship like petals that closed around dynamic centre-point.
