Yesterday afternoon, everyone, SpaceX included, expected another successful launch and landing of its Falcon 9 rocket as it delivered a weather satellite into space. Having already performed a successful vertical landing only weeks before, the same result was expected, even though it’d be landing on a sea barge instead of on dry land.

As you can probably tell, everything went wrong when the Falcon 9’s landing legs didn’t lock in place and stabilise the landing.

While SpaceX broadcasts its takeoffs and landings, the live feed cut just before the Falcon 9 rocket touched down on the autonomous sea barge. But, thanks to SpaceX founder Elon Musk, we can finally see just how painfully close the team came to a second successful launch.
