Default O.T. Rocket landing

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4240876/Incredible-moment-SpaceX-rocket-lands-launch-pad.html#ixzz4ZDAx3jdE

Space X rocket lands vertically just like the cartoons years ago.
They've done it before on sea platforms but this was the first time on
land.

Space X rocket lands vertically just like the cartoons years
ago. They've done it before on sea platforms but this was the first

Remember the old joke about the government rocket, "It won't work and
you can't fire it."

NASA starting off as a great agency has become bureaucratized and
inefficient. Private industry should take over.
