Via Instapundit, here's the SpaceX Grasshopper rocket going up, hovering, and coming down to land gently on its tail.

I remember back to DCX, a simular vehicle from years back and a quote from Dr Arlan Andrews. "Finally, a spacecraft that takes off and lands on a tail of fire the way GOD and ROBERT HEINLEIN intended."
