The rocket engines that lifted TESS.
Port Canaveral, Florida, USA.
TESS is the NASA Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite that launched Wednesday evening atop a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket. Here you can see the bottom portion of the recovered Falcon 9 first stage perched on the SpaceX sea landing barge. The barge was tugged into Port Canaveral late this morning.
