Abstract

The article discusses the space transport services company SpaceX and its creation of landing legs for rockets as of April 2014. SpaceX plans to send a capsule to the International Space Station and return the rocket that launched the capsule back to earth in order to test the landing legs, which would enable rockets to be reused through safely landing on Earth, significantly lowering the cost of spacecraft.
