Oh, SpaceX. You certainly keep your promises.
On Friday at 3:10 p.m. ET, SpaceX successfully launched a reused Falcon 9 rocket loaded down with BulgariaSat-1 — the small European nation's first geostationary communications satellite — to orbit.
About eight minutes later, the first stage of the rocket came in for a challenging landing on a drone ship floating in the Atlantic Ocean. This marks the twelfth time SpaceX has performed one of these reusable rocket landings, and was, according to the company, the most challenging of them all.
But that's not all.
