Return the space science packs back to the rocket silo

One landing pad is not a good solution. It does not make possibility to build small factories completely based on science. Also, collecting 27,000 space packs in one place and transporting them over long distances is not what we expected from the update. What happens if I build a base that produces more than 27,000 packs (just imagine we have a fast CPU+Memory)? Please consider previous implementation where space packs return back to silo or give possibility to build several landing pads and make relation between landing pad and silo. Or another possible option is a small attachable landing pad connected to side of silo. If silo has this attachment, then space packs from that rocket silo return back to the attached landing pad, otherwise to the big landing pad.

You can immediately unload arriving science packs onto a belt using filter inserters, and load them into trains. You can even unload with a lot of inserters, from three sides of the landing pad (leaving one side for cargo space extenders), to give it massive unloading speed.
Rocket silo method was just different method. Not better. Rocket Silo in Space Age does not produce any items like science packs any more, I don't see reason why would it be any better than unloading stuff from landing pad solution.

I don't see reason
I see that you don't have enough experience playing Factorio. Please, read again second sentence in first message.

Sorry for missing out that you are playing base version of the game, I might have misunderstood.
I have just enough experience to play happily, to love the game and don't be arrogant. Unlike some other people.
I don't understand what your problem is, will happily leave you to it.
