Impossibility is nothing. A dream has finally become a reality. SpaceX finally surprised doubters. The SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket was successfully landed on ‘Of Course I Still Love You’, a drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean.
The imaginations of Elon Musk and his SpaceX team is now an achievement. At exactly 9:43 PM Nigerian time yesterday, Falcon 9 was launched from the rocket Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, the Dragon cargo capsule was sent into the International Space Station.
Elon Musk held a press conference immediately after the rocket was launched saying “For half our missions, we will need to land out to sea. Anything beyond Earth is likely to need to land on the ship,”
SpaceX plans to carry out the landing as many times as possible to ensure perfection and take away the spectacle around it “We will be successful when this become boring,” he said.
