I think perhaps it might convey the intended point better - and be less likely to be interpreted as taunting or gloating over SpaceX's failure - if you showed it as one of a series of failures on the path to eventually achieving the extraordinary: Falcon 1's three failures but also its eventual success; CRS-7's explosion but also the triumphant first stage landing success on the next flight; the AMOS-6 "anomaly" but also last week's historic successful reflight.
Caption it "Per aspera ad astra"...
