Have you tried balancing a pencil on its end? How is THIS even possible? It doesn't just land, it does it in the most difficult way possible!

a pencil without a round eraser on the end is easy to balance

[@2020Max1]

Put a gyro in that pencil and you'll be able to balance it in all kinds of crazy angles.

youd think maybe a parachute deploy out the tip to help it but i guess winds or the exhaust blowing out the bottom when touching the ground would make the unpredictable and not viable

It is bloody amazing. We “played” at this as kids, so what will our kids imagine and later find so cool they didn’t really think it would happen? Peace on Earth? Good will toward all mankind? Or, maybe, a balanced government budget? Lol. That last one is a bit too far fetched isn’t it?

If you study control theory, this isn't terribly difficult actually. It is more just tedious to implement but the knowledge of how to do it has been around for 50+ years. It helps to have very fast computer to achieve the high sampling rates required and to coordinate them. As a safe bet I would say it certainly could have been done 25 years ago and probably another decade earlier than that. Not trying to take anything away from their accomplishment but I suspect this is more useful to private companies with real budgets than to government agencies for which the cost savings is almost budget dust and there are incentives (perverse maybe) to keep feeding the military-industrial-complex.
