5 am this morning :falcon: SpaceX booster landing experiment fails, but space flight goes on successfully! The attempted experimental soft landing of a SpaceX rocket booster on a platform at sea on Saturday failed, company CEO Elon Musk said in a tweet. "Rocket made it to drone spaceport ship, but landed hard. Close, but no cigar this time," he said. But he felt it "bodes well for the future."

Like with all falcons, those first landings are the toughest.
