"Landing a rocket once is hard. Doing it 601 times ... is also extremely hard, if not harder, and requires a continued relentlessness, pursuing full and rapid reusability."
Those are the words of Purdue Engineering alumnus Jon Edwards after learning the @SpaceX Falcon 9 Booster Landing Team would receive the inaugural Neil Armstrong Space Prize.
The first-ever laureates were surprised with the news during a recent announcement. Watch their reactions below ⬇️
