The spectacular moment when a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket crash-landed on a barge last weekend was captured on video that the company shared today on Twitter. The plan was for SpaceX to try and recycle the rocket for use by landing it on a barge shortly after a cargo load blasted off to the International Space Station. The video shows just how close the Falcon 9 came. However, it landed hard at a 45-degree angle, smashing its legs and engine section, according to CEO Elon Musk.
