SpaceX creates history by successfully launching commercial satellite with reused rockets

Elon Musk’s SpaceX has created history by successfully launching a commercial mission using reusable rocket to launch and land a spacecraft. The company not only recovered the booster from SES-10 mission but it was also able to land Flacon F9’s nose cone for the first time ever using thrusters and steerable parachutes. The ability to reuse rockets will be able to make a spaceflight more affordable and with this success the company is now on a new mission: to be able to relaunch a rocket just after 24 hours of its last flight.
