SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket once again successfully landed on a floating drone ship at sea after launching it into space early on Friday morning.
It is the third time the company has recovered vehicle post-launch, and the second time the rocket has landed intact on the ship.
Now, SpaceX has both demonstrated that it can land the Falcon 9 at sea, and that the company can repeat the process.
The logistics for this mission made sticking the landing unlikely, SpaceX said on Monday, but CEO Elon Musk upgraded the chances to “maybe even” just before launch.
