After launching its powerful Falcon Heavy rocket this evening, SpaceX caught part of the vehicle’s nose cone when it fell back to Earth — the first time the company has ever pulled off such a feat. The structure broke away from the rocket in space and parachuted back to the surface, where it then landed on a SpaceX boat outfitted with a giant net.
