SpaceX successfully landed its Falcon 9 rocket on solid ground again, after launching the vehicle from Cape Canaveral, Florida.
The rocket stage landed at Spacex Landing Zone 1 which is located just off the coast of the Cape. It’s the fourth time SpaceX has landed one of its rockets on land, and the 10th time the company has successfully recovered a rocket post-launch.
Spacex launched a secret spy satellite called NROL-76 for the National Reconnaissance Office. This is the first mission that SpaceX has done for the US military.
