SpaceX Landed A Rocket For The First Time!
This was a HUGE moment in space travel. SpaceX, the company run by Elon Musk (who also runs Tesla), landed a rocket for the first time. This rocket first made it to orbit, launched a payload headed for the ISS, then came back and landed on a floating terminal in the ocean. See the pictures and video below.
