One thing I don't get is why they are betting the farm- literally, the tower and the fuel farm, for the sake of learning the catching game.
Seems like I'd want a second landing tower, a little further away from the fuel facilities to ensure even if a landing doesn't stick, it doesn't compromise the entire launch facility.
I'm betting that landing was a little closer to failure than it appeared. Not knocking things at all- but at some point one of those is going to have a mishap. That's a lot of things that have to happen right all at once. This is still a learning process.
Again, kudos to space x. Awesome.
