"On Sunday, SpaceX accomplished the unheard-of maneuver of catching Starship's first-stage booster, known as Super Heavy, back on the launch tower, which is known as Mechazilla."
"Musk wants to attempt to catch both the booster and the upper stage, or Starship itself, sometime next year, he confirmed in a post on X."
"The catch means SpaceX will be able to bring back boosters for more than one use, making them recyclable for future launches and potentially enabling a more streamlined approach to future takeoffs."
"The past two Starship test launches, meaning IFT-4 and IFT-5, were total successes. Everything the company set out to accomplish with the launches took place with no real caveats."
