Description:
On March 30, 2017, SpaceX launched and landed a used rocket for the first time. <br/><br/>This was a huge step forward in SpaceX's plight to develop fully reusable rockets and reduce launch costs. The Falcon 9 rocket had completed a previous mission almost a year earlier, when it launched SpaceX's robotic Dragon cargo spacecraft to the International Space Station. The rocket booster then landed vertically on one of SpaceX's drone ships in the Atlantic Ocean, and this was the first successful drone ship landing for SpaceX. The company refurbished the rocket to prepare it for a second flight. This time the Falcon 9 launched a communications satellite called SES-10. It lifted off from Kennedy Space Center and stuck another awesome drone-ship landing after delivering the satellite into orbit.

The previous Mercury Redstone flight carried a chimpanzee named Ham into space. Ham made it back alive, but the rocket had several issues during the flight. So, NASA made some changes to the design and tested it one more time to make sure it was safe enough for human astronauts. The Mercury Redstone rocket lifted off from Cape Canaveral and traveled more than 300 miles downrange before splashing into the Atlantic Ocean. The mission was deemed a success and cleared the way for Al Shepard's historic first flight to space.")

Interested in pirate life and treasury, Nobita asks Doraemon to help him find secret treasures.

Bringing along Shizuka Minamoto, “Gian” Goda, and Suneo Honekawa, they roam the Pacific Ocean while playing ship.<br/><br/>However, Doraemon senses a time distortion that takes the group to the 16th century when real dangerous phenomena and sea monsters begin appearing. When a whirlpool destroys the group’s ship, Nobita goes missing due to drowning and floating away, while the others are rescued by 16th century-pirates boarding a huge pirate ship.<br/><br/>All but a few of Doraemon’s gadgets are gone following the whirlpool incident and they must assist the pirates in rescuing their comrades, with a female pirate named Betty having lost track of her brother and father, who is the leader of the company. Although Doraemon’s treasure map is torn in half, the pirates learn that their map is exactly the same as their own treasure map, confirming the existence of the secret treasures.")
