Pioneering SpaceX rocket launch aborted

The article is about the private spaceflight company spacex where they have scheduled rocket launch on Tuesday.In which the rocket will attempt the pioneering step of landing the rocket on a floating step.Then the article goes on to say that it had some problems with the falcons 9 rocket second stage and that the next possible launch attempt would be at 5:09 am ET Friday.It goes on to say  that the company has attempted twice a soft landing of falcons 9 first stage on water and that it shows that the rocket can go from hypersonic speed to zero and it can also deploy its legs.The reason they want to land the rocket on the platform is if something bad happens it would prevent any properties on earth being damaged and also that payload is to expensive they don't want to risk it.
