SpaceX again landed the first stage of one of its Falcon 9 rockets on Friday, capturing the landing with video footage from a camera positioned on the the outside of the rocket.
It was the third time the rocket company landed one of the rocket boosters on a drone ship at sea, the Verge reported.
Elon Musk, the founder and CEO of SpaceX, has said he intends to launch his first unmanned Mars mission in two years. His company has been working to land the first stage of its rockets safely after a launch so they can be re-used.
