▲=== Results of first landing attempt ===
▲SpaceX attempted a landing on the drone ship on 10 January 2015. Many of the [[flight test|test]] objectives were achieved, including precision control of the first stage's descent to land on the platform at a specific point in the south [[Atlantic Ocean]] and a large amount of test data was obtained from the first use of [[grid fin]] control surfaces used for more precise reentry positioning. However, the first stage was destroyed due to a [[hard landing]].<ref name=sfn20150110>{{cite news

▲The SpaceX webcast indicated that the boostback burn and re-entry burns for the descending first stage occurred, and that the descending then went "below the horizon", as expected, which eliminated the live telemetry signal. Shortly thereafter, SpaceX released information that the first stage did get to the drone spaceport ship as planned, but "landed hard ... Ship itself is fine. Some of the support equipment on the deck will need to be replaced".<ref name=sfn20150110/><ref name=sx-musk20150110>{{cite web
