Elon Musk’s SpaceX made history on Tuesday after launching a rocket into space from Florida and landing its Falcon 9 rocket booster in the Bahamas.
SpaceX’s rocket launch mission marked the first time a Falcon 9 landed on a drone ship off the coast of the Bahamas, according to a report by Fox 35 Orlando.
“Falcon 9 lands off the coast of The Bahamas for the first time! Welcome to space @VisitTheBahamas!” Musk’s company declared in a Tuesday X post, sharing video footage of the booster landing.
The Falcon 9’s first stage booster reportedly landed on the “Just Read the Instructions” droneship off the coast of Bahamas, in the Atlantic Ocean, nearly eight minutes after it blasted off from Cape Canaveral, Florida.
SpaceX reportedly said its Falcon 9 was able to maximize its performance by landing in the Bahamas after launching into a southeast trajectory from Florida.
The company further explained that launching toward the southeast allowed it to send additional satellites into orbit, as well as make it so that the rockets can launch human spaceflight missions to explore Earth, Fox 35 Orlando reported.
