I'm surprised nobody on this list has yet mentioned yesterday's historic
flight by Blue Origin's New Shepard.

I believe this is the first-ever successful vertical landing of a spacecraft
after a trip to space, is that not right? DC-X made some vertical landings,
but I don't think it ever flew to 100 km, did it?
Space-X will probably do it on their next flight or so, but it seems that
this is one for the history books.
