VIDEO: SpaceX Rocket Launched Successfully; Landed 'Too Hard for Survival'

Yesterday SpaceX Successfully Launched its Latest Mission to the International Space Station (ISS) but, Couldn't Reach its Goal of Safely Landing the Rocket's 1st Stage on a Barge. According to CEO, Elon Musk, while the Ascent was Successful, the "Rocket landed on droneship but, too hard for survival". There's No Video of the Landing Attempt Yet but, Hopefully Soon we'll be Able to See How Close it Came. This Outcome Isn't Entirely Unexpected, as Musk Tweeted Yesterday that, the Chance of a Successful Landing by the End of the Year, Stands at 80% only because, the Company has so Many Launches Planned.
