CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla.— The rocket that made a historic landing at sea last week is back at its home port.

SpaceX’s recovered 15-story booster, still standing tall on its floating platform, pulled into Florida’s Port Canaveral before dawn Tuesday. The company plans to test-fire the engines 10 times. If everything looks good, the booster could be used again on another mission as early as June.
