SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket is designed for reusability, and its landing legs play a crucial role in that process. These legs are stowed (folded) along the booster during liftoff for aerodynamics, then deploy (extend) just before landing to provide a stable touchdown. After a successful recovery at Port Canaveral, the legs are retracted (folded back) to prepare the booster for transport and refurbishment, ensuring it can be flown again in future missions. #SpaceX #Falcon9 #RocketRecovery #LandingLe
