If SpaceX can pull this off… the historic importance of the launch in 9 days should put the recent Orion flight to shame:

First rocket landing in Space Coast history could happen in weeks

The plan is to land the Falcon 9 on an oceangoing platform for return, refurb and relaunch. After the process is proved out, SpaceX plans on landing the boosters not on platforms out at sea, but back on land near the launch site.

*IF* this works (and there is the distinct possibility that it won’t… and I really hope the FBI is on the lookout to make sure that hijinks from Russia and China are minimized), then we’re looking at a possible whole new era of manned and unmanned spaceflight.
