IIRC they didn't have permission to try and land at a pad, which was always the intention, so they were going to try and prove they could do it at sea first. I guess they proved that they had enough control that NASA gave them permission to try on land.

Question:

Are they going to try to launch this particular stage 1 again in an actual commercial launch, take it completely apart to inspect it, launch it again in just a test launch, or what?
