If you’re a tech company executive, there are only a few things that could improve a vacation on an isolated tropical island — like finding rocket wreckage washed up on the beach outside your house. Spending a few days in the Bahamas last June, Blue Acorn CEO Kevin Eichelberger, BoomTown CEO Grier Allen, and ex-PeopleMatter CEO Nate Dapore spotted a few large pieces that drifted away from a failed SpaceX landing on an unmanned ship in the Atlantic a few days earlier. Curious, they tried their best to dissect the carbon-fiber pieces and send the attached GoPros back to their new friend Elon Musk. —Sam Spence
