Launch of the Commercial ReSupply (CRS) mission to the ISS. Right as the rocket enters at the bottom right (Ignore the flashy thing below it. It's just a plane) you can see just behind it a blob, of sorts, that is the 'Falcon Nebula' which is formed when the first stage is doing a 'boost back burn' against the plume from the 2nd stage. This was a 'partial' boost-back burn, so the 1st stage did not head back to the landing zone at Cape Canaveral, but instead landed not too far off the coast for easier recovery. This allows us to see the re-entry burn at 3:01.

Side note: I have no idea what that static sound is.
