BREVARD COUNTY • PORT CANAVERAL, FLORIDA – A SpaceX Falcon 9 booster aboard drone ship ‘Just Read the Instructions’ is back at the Port after having arrived Friday morning.
The booster helped orbit a South Korean military satellite on July 20 before landing on the drone ship out in the Altantic.
It’s the same booster that sent U.S. astronauts to the International Space Station on May 30.
SpaceX accomplished its first-ever hat trick by recovering the booster and both halves of the rocket’s nose cone, which were captured in the huge nets of Port-based SpaceX recovery vessels GO Ms. Tree and GO Ms. Chief.
