    autonomous spaceport drone ship, n.

    The Guardian, 16 January 2015:

    The intention was to land the nearly empty first stage of the Falcon 9 rocket on the ship (labelled, in suitably grand terms, the “autonomous spaceport drone ship” by the company). Typically, the first stage of rockets are single-use, splashing down into the ocean after they’ve burned out and experiencing damaging atmospheric burn on the way down. The Falcon 9 was instead intended to control its descent with left-over fuel and hydraulically operated fins – and it nearly did.
