Worth also pointing out: That's the 9th flight of Booster 1051. And it had a perfect landing.
The goal of this design of Falcon 9 is to handle 10 flights with minimum refurbishment. Right now, it looks like they're within a couple months of achieving that goal for the first time, with booster 1049 close as well, at 8 flights.
SpaceX is soon going to reach a point that they don't need to build more Falcon 9 boosters.
