SpaceX successfully lands a Falcon 9 rocket at sea for the third time
The landing video from the rocket[0] really puts into perspective how much this truly is 'rocket science'. They placed a boat 600km away in the ocean, and the rocket moving at 3000+km/h from 80-ish km up landed on it using some grid fins to steer.I get how it works, how you can do it, but it's still kind of incredible that they actually have 3 times in a row.[0] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jEz03Z8azcEdit: it was 8000km/h at MECO, not 3000km/h.
