- An instance of such a landing.
- A method of soft-landing a rocket with a well-timed, high-thrust engine burn starting at the last possible second, such that it reaches a vertical speed of 0 at precisely or almost precisely the exact moment that it touches the landing pad and the engine(s) shut down; often done because a particular rocket's absolute minimum thrust is greater than its weight when near-empty, rendering a hover or a constant-speed descent and touchdown impossible.
