After the launch, the first stage of the Falcon 9 experienced a hard landing and failed to land successfully on the deck of the droneshipOf Course I Still Love You in the Atlantic Ocean.[2] The landing failed due to low thrust on one of the three engines during the landing burn; as the rocket stage was about to land on the deck, the engines ran out of oxidizer.[3]
