They said it couldn't be done.
QuoteCongratulations, SpaceX! This morning a Falcon 9 rocket lofted 11 Orbcomm telecom satellites into low-Earth orbit and then the first stage made a spectacular safe touchdown - landing upright! - at Cape Canaveral, Florida. Well done, guys!
That's awesome.
I think it's great that they have real competition with at least one other company too (Blue Origin) to push them ever further.
It is science fiction become fact. Get a good bunch of engineers together, challenge them, and they'll find a way in the end.
