SpaceX tried for a second time Tuesday to land a rocket on an ocean platform, but it tipped over just after touching down.
The Falcon 9 rocket was successfully launched from Florida's Cape Canaveral station Tuesday to deliver a capsule to the International Space Station.
It was SpaceX's sixth successful launch, but the company founded by Elon Musk wants to land the rocket back on a platform at sea. If successful, the rocket recovery could mean significant cost savings for SpaceX, CNBC reported.
Video captured by a chase plane Tuesday showed the rocket attempting to land on a drone platform, tipping over and bursting into flames.
