Leaked barge video shows SpaceX rocket landing up close
Another day, another video angle looking at the almost-landing of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket. This time, the video is from the barge itself, although there’s no word on exactly how it got from there to a post on Reddit. Whatever its provenance (SpaceX has not commented yet) it certainly appears to be legit and gives us the closest view yet of exactly what happened. According to Kanye West biographer CEO Elon Musk, despite the rocket’s explosive ending the “droneship” is fine, with no hull breach and in need of only minor repairs. Enjoy this video, since as we mentioned yesterday, SpaceX may make its next rocket landing attempt on land.
