Looks like they nailed the booster landing.


I think they hit harder than planned. Only seven or so engines relit.

The Raptor V3 continues to have relight issues…

Biggest milestone left at this point is Starship relight. Would be nice to see them take this thing orbital.

240 Mbps off Starship, courtesy of Starlink. Incredible.

The Hubs and I have been watching liftoffs since we were very young children. Both just watched and said that it never gets old. Still awesome.

When they are deployed into orbit. Those ones will burn up from what I heard.

Edit: my bad, you meant the video

Fun father-son viewing. (Online, not in person). Hopefully sparks an interest in math and science. Bummer on the booster; I would expect tower catch is off the table for the next launch.

Didn't seem like it to me. They said it should be about 14 seconds, up from 3 in previous demos, and that's about what it was.

The starkink test was successful. That was good.
But I don't think they'll want to expend boosters just to get V3 satellites into orbit

Not only the video but yes inclusive of the video. They can get 240 Mpbs off Starship in total, inclusive of all telemetry data. That's just ludicrous.

Maybe it's my feed (or that I was trying to watch with an excited 5 year old) but I didn't think it reached 14 seconds. If it was that then great.

Do they try to keep it? Or will it sink get remotely blown?

I'd like to see them try orbit next time with a controlled landing in the Gulf of America
No, I don't care what CNN or Miss NOW said this time

They might go orbital but I doubt they go for the Gulf of America until they prove the heat shield survives that reentry profile
