Watch: SpaceX Falcon 9 Rocket Booster Landing Safely After Launch

FighterSweep Staff No Comments NASA, News, Space, SpaceX, Video

Yes, you may have seen footage of this before but who can get tired of watching it! It is very surreal watching a rocket booster land itself back on Earth after blasting off just minutes earlier. This is like something you would see in a science fiction movie but SpaceX is doing it in real life.

This video shows several different views you may not have seen before.  The Falcon 9 first stage landed at SpaceX’s Landing Zone 1 (LZ-1) at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida, on 1 May 2017.
