Recycling reaching new heights

Recycling has not only gained a firm foothold on earth, but is also reaching for the stars.

For the very first time, “a recycled SpaceX rocket and capsule” will be transporting a crew of astronauts from the Florida coast to the International Space Station.  This flight will help pave the way for space travel to become quite commonplace.  

If a new car were needed for each and every road trip, most folks would stay put.  But if the same car could be used time and again, highways would soon fill up.  The same might be said for recycled rockets.  Build them and passengers will multiply like loaves and fishes.
