Deadpool says Merry Christmas with a super violent new trailer

On the SpaceX webcast, one person said it was like “launching a pencil over the Empire State Building, having it reverse, come back down, and land on a shoebox on the ground during a windstorm”. The Falcon 9 rocket put 11 ORBCOMM satellites into orbit as planned in SpaceX’s first mission since they had a rocket unexpectedly explode just moments into an ISS resupply mission. Welcome to the club!
The grid fins, located near the top of the rocket help steer it. As it nears the landing site, engineers light the engines once more to help guide it, while the landing legs are deployed. That effort was thwarted when the fins meant to guide the rocket’s descent stopped working, and it crashed into the drone ship it was meant to land on. Now that SpaceX has launched and landed a rocket, Musk says the company is planning to launch a rocket, land it, and launch it again “sometime next year”. Typically, first-stage rockets are destroyed after one use, making space travel extremely expensive. “No-one has ever brought a booster, an orbital-class booster, back intact”. The launch and landing occurred at Cape Canaveral in Florida.
