NASA and SpaceX hosted a post-launch conference for the successful CRS-12 mission on Monday, revealing intriguing information about their plans and goals for the final months of 2017.

Hans confirmed unofficial rumors that SpaceXÂ’s Q4 2017 launch of SES-11 would utilize a flight-proven booster, likely one from a previous CRS mission.

Over the winding course of the last two or so decades, the world as a whole has experienced wave after wave of cycles of technological development and disruption. Uninterrupted telecommunications, handheld computing, robotics, and artificial intelligence have progressed and proliferated in ways that were not broadly anticipated, and they did so at a pace often faster than predicted. Recently on the minds of many prominent academic philosophers and less-than-academic laypersons are topics of human-AI interaction both in the present and future.

SpaceX successfully conducted its 11th orbital launch of 2017, tasked with sending its Cargo Dragon spacecraft into low Earth orbit. SpaceX and NASA will now work towards a first docking attempt with the International Space Station, currently planned for August 16th. As the second stage of Falcon 9 continues to lift its Dragon payload into orbit, the first stage, 1039, made its way back to Landing Zone-1 (LZ-1) for yet another picture perfect recovery. Eight drone ship recoveries and now six land-based recoveries mean that SpaceX has successfully recovered 14 Falcon 9 first stages.
