SpaceX says it will attempt to catch the Starship Super Heavy booster with the pad chopsticks, but it would “require healthy systems on the booster and tower and a manual command from the mission’s Flight Director. If this command is not sent prior to the completion of the boostback burn, or if automated health checks show unacceptable conditions with Super Heavy or the tower, the booster will default to a trajectory that takes it to a landing burn and soft splashdown in the Gulf of Mexico.” #Sp

Incredible footage of SpaceX’s revolutionary booster recovery system in action! Watch as the massive Super Heavy booster descends toward the launch tower’s “chopstick” arms while the water deluge system activates preemptively to suppress heat and debris. This engineering marvel demonstrates the precision required for SpaceX’s reusable rocket technology, with the mechanical arms positioned perfectly to catch the 230-foot tall booster. The early activation of the water suppression system shows the

On the 13th of October 2024, SpaceX achieved the first successful catch of its Super Heavy booster during Starship Flight 5 at Starbase in Boca Chica, Texas. The booster, after launching the Starship upper stage, returned precisely to the launch tower. Mechanical arms, dubbed "chopsticks," clamped onto the booster mid-air, securing it upright. The maneuver marked a milestone in reusable rocketry. Thousands watched the live stream, with cheers erupting at mission control. #spaceship #spacex #elon
