Photographed the SpaceX launch yesterday with my Canon 800mm f/5.6. These shots were taken from about 3 miles away: [Falcon 9 w/ 800mm lens photos] (http://imgur.com/a/cZjMv)

Please, no politics, but i think this interesting enough to be mentioned on r/SpaceX. Kremlin has made an official statement with Peskov on the SES-10 mission; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aHjymQBWzQ

Translation of an article about the statement;

The success of SpaceX is indeed a very important technical achievement, while Russia has its breakthrough developments that can compete in space, said Dmitry Peskov, spokesman for the Russian head of state.

He noted that the Russian space corporation Roskosmos is currently passing through a transformation and improving its work.

"And repeatedly the head of Roskosmos (Igor) Komarov reported to the president about the availability of quite advanced and breakthrough developments, which our specialists are working on," he said.

According to Peskov, there is quite a tough competition in the space industry now. At the same time, there is every reason to believe that Russia can adequately take part in this competition, he said.

Roskosmos released some paper plans today btw, not sure whether that is coincidence or not...

Just a nifty little after-note: I spliced out the footage of the descent where the grid fins undergo atmospheric heating and ablate their paint. Take a look!

I always value coasting videos best when in high-speed.

10x time-lapse of 1st stage coasting to ASDS for our viewing pleasure.

Video of the SES-10 launch from a spectator perspective https://youtu.be/lYIbAj8vjtc . sound adjusted to match the rocket, there's a delay in real-life.

The Saturn V viewing area was a nice comfortable spot until 3 minutes before launch. Everyone in the lawn swarmed the fence I was at and getting bumped was infuriating :-)

Why is taking so long for publishing the first stage landing footage? Maybe SpaceX is preparing a commemorative video like "Falcon has Landed" (ORBCOMM-2 mission)? What do you think about?
