Space X Conspiracy theories have started

I hate space conspiracies as what are they trying to achieve and is russia in on the plot as well then.
 
One thing i did notice and I'm sure it's been commented on is the loss of image just as the booster rocket (or whatever it's called) was due to land back on the drone ship deck. One minute you're looking at an empty deck, loss of picture, then we see the rocket on the deck. My cynical alarm bells start ringing, but is that just because we don't believe anything these days?

I should say that I've not followed the buildup to this launch or read anything since, and only watched a recording. So I was particularly interested in how this thing was going to land on the deck of a ship as it seemed a great advance to me on previous launches, but maybe it's something that has been done a lot in the ten years+ since I last took an interest. Somebody tell me it's so.
 
I did think that too but i dismissed my own cynicism, I'd like to think it was just a coincidence that the brief loss of picture occurred just then
 
is that rocket under gyroscopic control when it's on the deck? Can see the ship rolling on the waves but the rocket doesn't.
 
The reason it doesn't fall is its low sense of gravity. All of it's weight (around 3/4) is at the bottom of the rocket.
 
That is quite incredible. The view I was watching was just a close up of the landing pad. So is this new or has it been done before, apart from in tests of course?

I think it's been fairly routine for the past 3 years. Landing the second part is apparently crucial for moon landings and future Mars missions.
