While many eyes are on the rocket Kim just launched at Taylor, SpaceX was busy sending a payload up to ISS and and trying out another experimental landing of a rocket.




And SpaceX succeeded! The first stage segment of the Falcon 9 rocket successfully landed in Cape Canaveral only about 5 minutes after launching.

While SpaceX has been having a some success landing rockets, this is one of the first instances of it doing so while performing a NASA-contracted ISS delivery.
