HAWTHORNE, Calif., Oct. 27 (UPI) -- Elon Musk of SpaceX has announced his spacecraft could soon be returning to Earth and landing on platforms.
During a conversation at MIT's AeroAstro Centennial Symposium on Friday, Musk said he plans to have his Falcon 9 rockets land on football field-sized floating platforms in the Atlantic Ocean as soon as December. He hopes to one day land the rockets back where they were launched.
