IFT-6???

Interesting how you figured they'd be using the full 13 engines most of the way, whereas in reality they switched to 3 much earlier. I didn't expect that either. Also, do you think the shock absorber slightly malfunctioned - was it potentially supposed to be more of a smooth padding like in your animation?

This is such a sick video in retrospect. Mad insight

Looks cgi.....

This animation is hard to distinguish from reality. Someone get this guy on the SpaceX animation team.

Auto focus, it's like an inconvenient Spelling Checker that's always making wrong corrections.

The Chopsticks position is way too low and The switch from 13 to 3 Engines is also way earlier

they did it

If dark maga and orange man win govt will come for his accomplishments and steal them as their own

Beautiful coverage, Sir. Thankyou.

This is what happens, when you put brilliants minds together with no limits!

Great job for your video and for the booster landing! It was successful!

whats freaking insane to me is that the 2 puny 17cm diameter load points (which is probably about the same surface area of your hand) have to be able to withstand at least 3675 tonnes or between the two of them.. and they're also ball joints!!! 🤯🤯🤯🤯 😱😱😱😱 AND on the return flight the super heavy has to rotationally align correctly so that they'll land on them!

That close-in, tight shot of the engines and mach diamonds at liftoff........a still from that should win a Pulitzer Prize

there is no real difference between landing a booster and catching it. it lands all the same just the "legs" it lands on are at the top and not the bottom of the booster

the notes that play at 8:54 during boostback over the main theme of boostback

The only video I saw that gives the real sense of velocity scale! great shot!

METHANE TANK 🤔 THOSE ROCKETS RUN ON SHIT‼️👀 Elon Musk is Awesome and Inspiring ❤️

i wonder how they will catch the starship, will it have the same 2 lifting points like the booster?

I invented and perfected this same process drawing cartoons as a kid in the 1960s. Okay.

I dont know I think sh o Russ are usinv somethik.

Here only Jehová he can all❤amen

Are there really Flat-earthers who think this was faked? How stupid or delusional do people have to be these days?

Would love to see a follow up now that the launch has successfully occurred!

next video: how SpaceX will catch the ship

It went well!!!!!!!

El camarógrafo:🗿

I watched the recovery live. I could not believe how well the process went. It almost looked like it could be animated if I didn’t know it was true. These men and women really know how to accomplish the impossible. Now, if they could only figure out how to get good cell phone coverage.

Clearly Ryan needs to be a Elon employee. Or ........ Senior CEO of Estes Model rockets as they duplicate this historical catch in minature form.

I can't belive

It gives me goosebumps to see such a remarkable achievement. Although Musk is a bit of a fuckwit, I have a massive respect for him.

Unbelievable ‼️ 1,000 TIMES ‼️ Unbelievable ‼️ CONGRATULATIONS ON THE FIRST TIME‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ THE WHOLE SPACE-X TEAM ❤️‼️❤️‼️❤️💕‼️💕❤️‼️❤️ WOW ‼️

The suicide burn is insane!

Amazing!

I can't beleive they did it! Incredible! So many factors that all need to be perfect and they nailed it!

No one thanks engineers for their service

Excellent Video 😊

Wow, this is incredible 🤩👏🏻!

Where is the info on Stsrships landing for the recent launch. I get ypu caught the booster but not as much talk about the Slandings landing.

15:44 So when they get to the point of rapid re-use they will need to catch ship while booster is already sitting on the OLM. How is that possible? Will they have to catch the ship with only one of the arms able to move?

These 3D models are amazing and must have been so much work.

In any case, congratulations for your work! But a simulation is just a simulation, why not have it published before? You were so close to reality! You are very successful in your field!💪

Imagine a catch Tower on top of a pyramid that is 90 miles high.....also if starlink satellites were orbiting Venus..we could just drop cell phones down to the planet and get some pictures of what is under the clouds of the north and south poles of Venus

You seen the future my friend 👍

Where do I get that sweater the Spacex Technician was wearing? ("In Thrust - We Trust")

Tip: Either get the camera to focus automatically or focus manually on the launch pad before the fireworks kick off. Then turn off autofocus. If you're focussed on basically infinity, then you shouldn't need to adjust the focus through the entire video, unless you accidentally nudge it.

This video, produced ahead of time, looks amazingly like the first actual catch! Well done.

The water is not just for fire safety it more to do with sound suppression

It's crazy how accurate your simulation was to watching the real thing!
