They nailed the landing — landing a rocket ship on an ocean ship for the first time in history!
I'm really excited about this, because this could really bring the cost down dramatically... like to maybe $5M - $7M per launch. And most of that savings comes from reusing only the first stage; if they manage to reuse the second stage as well, that's just gravy.
The frontier is opening soon!
