SpaceX Will Make Its Second Attempt At A Rocket Landing On Sunday

After its first attempt to land a Falcon 9 rocket on a drone barge went up in flames, SpaceX isn’t quitting: round two will take place this Sunday. A SpaceX rocket will be used to launch the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR), a US government satellite that will monitor ‘space weather’.

The launch is scheduled for 6.10pm EST (10.10pm AEDT) from Cape Canaveral. Hopefully the highlights reel on this occasional will be a little less explosive.
