That's awesome. That part is huge. Is that a camera attached? I bet SpaceX can't wait to get a look at the footage.

I wonder which launch it's from.

from your first link...

The serial number of the GoPro camera cover -15- indicates the fragment came from the February 11 launch of DSCOVR. This means the fairing rode the currents of the Atlantic Ocean for almost three months before coming to rest on the Bahamian island.
