Strap-On Booster Landing
B1065 has successfully landed on LZ-2 after its first flight.
Landing Zone 2 – ATL
LZ-2 Pad located at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station at the previous LC-13. Directly next to LZ-1
Return to Launch Site – RTLS
A return to launch site usually means that after stage separation the booster flips and does a burn back towards the launch site, landing near where it initially launched from.
