SpaceX has nailed another seabarge landing of a first stage of its Falcon 9 rocket. Returning from the successful launch of a Japanese communications satellite, the Falcon 9 booster set down on the "Of Course I Still Love You" droneship late Saturday.

​SpaceX has released footage shot from a circling chase plane of the first successful barge landing of the Falcon 9 mainstage booster.

SpaceX successfully made the first landing of an orbital space booster rocket today at 8:39 pm EST at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida. The Falcon 9 first stage rocket booster made a controlled, powered touchdown on land after delivering 11 communications satellites into low Earth orbit.

On June 28, SpaceX suffered a major setback when its unmanned CRS-7 mission exploded shortly after liftoff. SpaceX founder and CEO Elon Musk has laid out the preliminary findings of the post-flight investigation which indicate the cause may have been a faulty strut.

SpaceX has released stunning footage from a GoPro camera tumbling back to Earth following a recent Falcon 9 launch. The device, fitted in a section of composite fairing that separated from the launch vehicle soon after lift-off, recorded breathtaking views of our planet.

As the unmanned CRS-5 spacecraft rose into orbit to resupply the International Space Station, the first stage of its Falcon 9 booster made an historic attempt at a powered landing on a drone barge positioned in the Atlantic Ocean, which did not come off successfully.

SpaceX has confirmed that it will not only attempt a powered landing of the Falcon 9 booster on Friday after the CRS-5 mission launch, but will do so as a precision landing on a robotic sea barge.

SpaceX aborted the launch of a Falcon 9 rocket carrying six Orbcomm OG2 communication satellites today. Six minutes and nine seconds before the lift off, mission control declared an abort of the launch due to a problem with the second stage of the rocket.

A picture is worth a thousand words, but not if the picture is a blurry, pixelated mess. That’s what SpaceX has realized as it releases the raw footage to the public in hopes of crowdsourcing the restoration effort.

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has confirmed that the first stage of the Falcon 9 rocket that boosted the CRS-3 Dragon spacecraft into orbit made a controlled power landing on the surface of the Atlantic Ocean.

SpaceX announced on Thursday that it has delayed the scheduled launch of the third commercial flight of its unmanned Dragon cargo ship to the International Space Station (ISS) that would have seen the first mission of the Falcon 9 launch vehicle with its landing legs.

We all know the keyboard and mouse are NOT the future of the Computer Human Interface (CHI), and it’s high time we found a replacement capable of generating critical mass. One device with the potential to play a role in the next generation interface is the Novint Falcon. Aptly named because of its
