On the third integrated flight test, all 33 booster engines once again remained lit until main engine cutoff (MECO), and then following hot-staging, 13...

2016 the entire Falcon 9 booster is recovered for reuse by landing vertically on a landing pad using one of its nine Merlin engines. The injector at the heart...
