The rocket blasted off from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station and got all 21 Starlink internet satellites to orbit. But the first-stage booster fell over in a fireball moments after landing on an ocean platform, the first such accident in years. It was the 23rd time this particular booster had launched, a recycling record for SpaceX.

Shit happens.

a recycling record for SpaceX.

The article writes "a recycling record for the entire fucking world" a little funny.

I'm not entirely sure what point you're trying to make there.
