SpaceX planned to return Starship's huge first-stage booster, called Super Heavy, catching it with the "chopstick" arms of the launch tower in a bold and unprecedented manoeuvre.
Soon after the successful landing of the Starship Super Heavy Rocket, Elon Musk stated that the rocket could be relaunched within an hour.
Starship aims to advance interplanetary travel, test new technologies, and pave the way for human missions to Mars and beyond.
SpaceX’s innovative recovery technique is likely to revolutionise space travel reducing turnaround times between flights, making space travel more sustainable and cost-effective.
Led by Elon Musk, SpaceX’s engineers and scientists have turned a dream into reality, pushing the limits of space technology.
SpaceX is already planning future missions, including crewed flights and further advancements toward making Mars colonization a reality.
