@SpaceX @Space_Station Kiss the sky Dragon! Touchdown safely and see you when you arrive! 😊

@SpaceX @Space_Station Reminds me of the Gemini 4 splashdown in '65. Back then, a few degrees off meant missing the recovery fleet by miles. It's wild how we've turned those four burns into a routine commute.

@SpaceX @Space_Station Awesome view!!

@SpaceX @Space_Station 🚀 Dragon is coming home TODAY.
Reusable. Reliable. Remarkable.

@SpaceX @gailalfaratx @Space_Station Still amazing that crew transport to orbit has become normal enough that we casually discuss splashdown schedules

@SpaceX @elonmusk @Space_Station Elon, serious question: With SpaceX, xAI, Neuralink, Starlink, Tesla, Optimus and X converging, are you trying to discover what is outside the simulation — or create the next simulation layer? I think you know what I mean.

@SpaceX @Space_Station Space X - it’s mind blowing how great this is from a private company. 😀💕🇺🇸 go Elon 🚀🛰️

@SpaceX @Space_Station Left earth when Elon was a billionaire. Returns when he's a trillionaire.

@SpaceX @Space_Station Again, you guys make this look way too easy

@SpaceX @elonmusk @Space_Station Can anyone give me local California time that it will return?

@SpaceX @rocker_261 @Space_Station Jo🔥🔥

@SpaceX @Space_Station Awesome job

@SpaceX @Space_Station Why is it so difficult to find a picture of the estimated trajectory to splash down?

@SpaceX @Space_Station Great job spaceX dragon I’m impressed
