You eventually have to start wondering what these speeds are relative to.

Watching the re-entry and landing on the drone ship is what I really wanted to see and the shit cut out for like three seconds and then suddenly came back on and the thing had already landed. Bullshit! Fake launch! LIZARD PEOPLE!

They are currently going 27,000 kph.

But measuring from a stable point becomes meaningless in space once you take in to account the movement of any frame of reference.

We are constantly moving. The earth is rotating, while we rotate around the sun, while our universe also moves through space.

so Im assuming that speed is relative to its position to the space station

So where exactly is the ship going? Are they going to the moon? Or is it just going to float around for a while and then come back to Earth?

The main section reorientated, went straight back down... engaged its engine again and landed vertically like an actual fucking rocket ship.
