SpaceX's latest Falcon 9 rocket has been tweaked to make it easier to use over and over again
SpaceX has long touted reusability as the key to reducing launch costs, and eventually, making its way to the Red Planet. But so far, it has relaunched 11 of its workhorse Falcon 9 rockets, one time each. And it has taken at least several weeks to turn those around for the next launch.
On Thursday afternoon, the Hawthorne space company will debut the latest and final upgrade to the Falcon 9 - the so-called Block 5 version - which the company says will be capable of being used 10 times, with minimal refurbishment.
