Falcon 9s första steg på pråmen Of Course I Still Love You strax efter landningen

SpaceX CRS-8 eller SpX-8 avsåg ett obemannat lastuppdrag till Internationella rymdstationen med SpaceX:s rymdfarkost Dragon. Farkosten sköts upp den 8 april 2016 från Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, med mål att leverera farkostens last, däribland modulen Bigelow Expandable Activity Module (BEAM), till rymdstationen. Farkosten dockade med rymdstationen den 10 april 2016.

Efter att ha fyllts med material som skulle tillbaka till jorden, lämnade farkosten stationen den 11 maj 2016, några timmar senare återinträdde den i jordens atmosfär och landade i Stilla havet.

Efter uppskjutningen lyckades SpaceX landa bärraketens första steg, på pråmen OCISLY ute på Atlanten, ungefär 300 km öster om Cape Canaveral.

ISS021-E-017623 (30 Oct. 2009) --- Backdropped by a cloud-covered part of Earth, the unpiloted Japanese H-II Transfer Vehicle (HTV), filled with trash and unneeded items, departs from the International Space Station. European Space Agency astronaut Frank De Winne, Expedition 21 commander; NASA astronaut Nicole Stott and Canadian Space Agency astronaut Robert Thirsk, both flight engineers, used the station's Canadarm2 robotic arm to grab the HTV cargo craft and unberth it from the Harmony node's nadir port. The HTV was successfully unberthed at 10:18 a.m. (CDT) on Oct. 30, 2009, and released from the station's Canadarm2 at 12:32 p.m.
