Falcon stage 1 landing is a bull's eye!

There are few interesting photos (and videos) at Space.com, showing Falcon 9 launch and landing on Dec 21st, 2015.  Make sure to take a look; they are beautiful.
I believe the one below shows a 'bull's eye', a bull's eye from hundreds of kilometers!

All I learned I learned from RadioLab: Speed

All I learned, I learned from RadioLab. OK, maybe not all, but many interesting facts about life, science, etc.

My favorite episode of all time is probably 'Speed'. All 'stories' in this episode are very interesting.
