The drone ship, which the company calls "Of Course I Still Love You," was seen coming back to port at about 7:15 a.m. Wednesday with the booster aboard.
It landed successfully on the drone ship at about 2 a.m. Sunday, just minutes after a Falcon 9 Block 5 rocket carrying Telstar 19 VANTAGE satellite blasted off from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.
The satellite is expected to bring more broadband service to northern Canada, Latin American countries such as Brazil, Peru, and the Caribbean.
