    I found this launch pretty interesting both because it was a "frankenrocket" of sorts, with an old first stage and a Block 5 second stage, not to mention that they went fully expendable with no attempt to perform a soft water landing when they've been trying out extreme recovery profiles on almost every other expended launch.
