Watch SpaceX’s Historic Falcon 9 Rocket Landing in Spectacular 4K

Elon Musk and SpaceX have made history, finally landing the company’s Falcon 9 rocket on a barge in the middle of the ocean.

As icing on the cake, SpaceX recently released the Falcon 9 rocket landing in 4K so we can relive it over and over in crystal clear quality.

Congratulations to SpaceX on this marvelous feat that many initially considered to be nearly impossible!
