We've come a long way since Gagarin rode a Vostok booster into space. Yesterday, SpaceX successfully launched an Arabsat communications satellite into orbit on a Falcon Heavy booster, and landed all three first stage cores.
While the launch is spectacular, my favourite part of the mission is watching the two side cores land back at the Cape. This is one of my favourite videos of the landing yesterday; it's short, but captures the sonic booms right after they touch down.
