SpaceX came close to having their first stage rocket land on a barge in the ocean!  The fact that it delivered its payload to the ISS, de-orbited, and flew itself all the way to the landing barge is a great achievement.  It would've been perfect to nail the landing, but I have no doubt that they'll get one to land in the near future.  Congrats SpaceX!  'Merica!
