Space X's heavy booster recovery is gonna be freaking awesome!

It just hit me. In the 50's and 60's with regard to the US space program, all the people with scientific knowledge and imagination went to NASA or the military (a small few) or to contractors. Today they're in private industry...whether corporations that push the envelope like Space X or in the financial sector fucking up the economy. We're living in the best of times and the worst of times.
