Tomorrow morning at 6:20am ET SpaceX will make a historic attempt - TopicsExpress



          

Tomorrow morning at 6:20am ET SpaceX will make a historic attempt to land and refly the first stage of our Falcon 9 rocket. If this works, we will bring affordable spaceflight within the eventual reach of everyone! Reusability is why you can pay $800 to fly on a $330,000,000 airliner cross country. Imagine if they threw away the plane after every flight! 8 minutes after launch, we will will propulsively land the 14 story tall first stage over 200 miles downrange on a floating barge. While the barge is the largest we could find and is the size of a football field, it looks VERY small with a huge rocket sitting on it. youtu.be/CfMuvsC9k2U Watch the action live online and wish us luck! This is the big step that puts Mars in our grasp! https://new.livestream/spacex/events/3665355
