(VIDEO) Insane Slow Motion Footage Of SpaceX Falcon 9 Rockets

August 12, 2016

Check out this insane video of previous launches, re-entries and landings, yes landings, of SpaceX Falcon 9 rockets.

While it is common to see rockets take off, it is not that common to see this kind of action in slow motion, making the launches and re-entries much more amazing and visually stunning. The slow motion makes it even better than any other science fiction movie ever could.

SpaceX released the missions in order of appearance so you can see the progress.

May JCSAT-14; July CRS-9 launch, stage separation, engine plume interaction, and re-entry burn; December 2015 ORBCOMM landing burn; July CRS-9 landing burn.

Here is the Falcon 9’s description on their website.

“Falcon 9 is a two-stage rocket designed and manufactured by SpaceX for the reliable and safe transport of satellites and the Dragon spacecraft into orbit. As the first rocket completely developed in the 21st century, Falcon 9 was designed from the ground up for maximum reliability. Falcon 9’s simple two-stage configuration minimizes the number of separation events — and with nine first-stage engines, it can safely complete its mission even in the event of an engine shutdown.

Falcon 9 made history in 2012 when it delivered Dragon into the correct orbit for rendezvous with the International Space Station, making SpaceX the first commercial company ever to visit the station. Since then SpaceX has made multiple flights to the space station, both delivering and returning cargo for NASA. Falcon 9, along with the Dragon spacecraft, was designed from the outset to deliver humans into space and under an agreement with NASA, SpaceX is actively working toward that goal.”
