#SpaceX’s #Starship Super Heavy Booster falling from space and being caught by the launch tower!

Tremendous achievement, salute to all the scientists, mathematician, engineers, and everyone involved.

[Jspar]

This is actually an insane feat of engineering and mechanics. Holy

Edit: Ty for 23k, also a lot of people are mad 👇

[BrianGochnauer]

The best video I've seen of the return; simply because it was a wider shot and gives you a sense of speed against the cloud layer behind it. WELL DONE.

[scottlarsen]

That is absolutely amazing! I'm 64 years old. I didn't think I would ever see something like this. It's a great time to be alive! I think I watched that 10 times. Absolutely amazing!

[chuckjackson]

Wish my dad could have been around to see this. He served in the USAF as a jet mechanic, took me to many rocket launches with special close up views. This is great.

I'm 63 and had worked in NASA, but I never expected this to happen ever in my life.

Dude that is INSANE that they were able to do this! It doesn’t even have aiming functions except through the bottom of a giant tube, and somehow it was not only able to right itself but also aim to the precise spot to be caught, still midair. Like, I’m a practiced, dexterous human being and can’t even aim a video game character with the simplest controller, and this pez dispenser bigger than any buildings within a 6-hour drive managed the exact angles and pressure to navigate perfectly!

This video was taken from a distance of approximately 4.25 kilometres away. You can calculate this by measuring the time between the firing of the rockets and the time you hear the sound of the rockets. Sound travels at a speed of 343 m/s and the time between the visual signal of the engines firing to the point you hear the ignition is 12.39 seconds. Which gives you
12.39 x 343 = 4249.77 meters. Amazing how large it still looks from that far away.

These are the things what we used to see in Sci-fi movies and now becoming reality.

[lukaszpinczura]

I'm 32 and need to start caring about my health to live as long as possible to continue witness these things.

[СергейЛукащук-лу]

😂😂😂у нас в 80-х уже такие летали. Привет людям Байконура и в общем всего нам доброго КАЗАХСТАНА ❤

[Djborders]

Every tv station should of been playing this for all the young kids to This is perfectly executed

[JordanDrew-ro]

It's absolutely amazing how there's so little enthusiasm in the main media about how absolutely amazing this accomplishment is.

[Tarumarugan]

Everyone involved in that project will never have to update their resume ever again after this 😂

[moushgas]

When we go back to 200 years we have only horses .
I can't imagine what can be after 200 years from now.
Amazing work from human kind.

[TimothyChandawira]

This will never get old, congrats spacex team for a monumental achievement

[TraitorousChen]

What a time to be alive! 120 years from first flight to this. Even more humbling is the incalculable number of hands, minds, and hours that made this 60 second clip possible

[jrkovar]

My friend Dennis worked for NASA and helped me through university physics courses. Wish he'd lived to see this. RIP Dennis

[mathewgurney]

And almost every child and manual worker knew the physics necessary for this, right under our noses. Balance a broom-handle, scaffold pole or any stick point down on your hand, move your palm to keep it balanced upright. Congratulations you now understand the stabilising booster pattern of a space-rocket.

[isfaqualalam]

Genuinely one of the coolest things I've ever seen
