There is a pretty quick, but cool video of this event, filmed by a flying DC8 Jetliner Laboratory.

LOL! No worries, they're both cool. It's interesting to see how the spacecraft fragmented during reentry. Can't wait to hear about the sample they returned.
That is interesting because the first time I clicked on it, (and it was quick) there was a video but just a "blip". Clicked again and never was able to get it to "blip" another time.
Heck, maybe "I'm" the blip.
When did this happen? Cool video!
