**Remember how we were talking about landing a rocket vertically? Click here to watch the first stage of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 Rocket land on a barge in the Atlantic Ocean! It’s such an incredible feat, something they had to practice multiple times before getting it to work. When they do land the empty rocket, they’re saving over $50 million everytime! (You can also youtube the failures exploding upon landing – educational as well – you can show your students real-life examples of engineering retests.)
