SpaceX has retired its experimental rocket, Grasshopper, that helped the company develop and demonstrate a vertical landing capability. The focus will now shift to the Falcon 9-R, which the company will use to further develop the capability in conditions more like those of an actual space mission.
SpaceX is keeping Grasshopper for now, but its final home could easily be a museum.
