Space launch

Watched the coverage of the launch last evening.. It all went well getting the 4 guys off to the Space Station,
I thought the most remarkable feat following the launch was the recovery of the first stage booster. Imagine the planning and execution of:
1. Slowing it down.
2. Standing it on it's end.
3. Rigging out its supporting legs.
4. Making a gentle landing on a ship's deck out in the Atlantic.
The rocket can be reused.

That achievement is equivalent to the moon landings.
