It's pretty remarkable how unremarkable Falcon 9 booster landings have become compared to just a few years ago.
I know exactly how you feel. I remember the days when they were talking about they thought they could use a booster 10 times before having to replace it. And here they're starting to use boosters 24 and 25 times.
The launches and recoveries have just become so routine that I personally don't think about them much until I hear a number like the 450th landing of a booster or the first booster to be used 25 times, etc.
they're starting to use boosters 24 and 25 times
They're approaching 30 now! B1067 recently completed its 28th launch and landing.
Oh, that's incredible. The last time I heard was 25, I think.
