Mechazilla Booster Catch Attempt on the Next SpaceX Starship Flight
• https://www.nextbigfuture.com, by Brian WangIf successful this would mean saving 33 of the 39 engines for a Starship Superheavy. This would mean getting to the reusability level of the Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy.
There will be no FAA delay to get this licensed for the next launch. This likely happens in July.
There has been a successful simulated booster landing with the soft landing in the water on this last launch.
Despite loss of many tiles and a damaged flap, Starship made it all the way to a soft landing in the ocean!
