That was awesome. Can't wait for SN16. Any passengers would have survived, so definitely a win! Impressed the old style landing legs held up.

![]() I hope that putting out a fire every time doesn't qualify as nominal going forward! But that was insane. Congrats SpaceX!!!!

My main take away was that there was zero "leaking fire" in the engine bay this time. At least not until after it landed.

It looked like it landed with 2 raptors. The new iteration must be able to throttle deeper than before.

That's got to be less than a ten feet from the edge of the landing pad... ![]()

Oh that's cool. I forgot. Today is the 60th anniversary of Shepard's first flight.

I'll admit I'm pretty anti-BO. F* Bezos and his attempt to patent water landings. If they ever make it to orbit I'll probably be happy for them, but until they do they're just another example of why the space industry has been locked in the '60s for so long.
