    Last week, SpaceX added another important entry in the history books by successfully landing the first stage of its Falcon 9 rocket on a drone ship at sea for the second time. The landing was perhaps even more important than the first successful landing in April since the rocket's re-entry into into the Earth's atmosphere was much faster, and harder to pull off, this time around. 
    SpaceX and the company founder and CEO Elon Musk tweeted important details and pics throughout the whole mission, as always, but footage and photos of the actual landing were dark and blurry. Now, SpaceX has treated us to a new set of photos on Flickr, showing the rocket's condition on the morning after.
    Even better, on Tuesday SpaceX tweeted a video of what it called the "hottest and fastest landing yet" from three angles. 


    Despite the rocket's speedier approach, the landing looks incredibly smooth, more controlled and easier than the first successful attempt. For comparison, check a nifty 360-degree video of April's landing below.
