After approx. 24 days at sea, the SpaceX Recovery team successfully guided Starship to a location just off the coast of Christmas Island. A team of SpaceX engineers is on their way to conduct additional analysis on the vehicle in calmer waters before attempting to return it to Starbase
@luke_leisher_ Ok. Iโm going to be driving, but itโs mainly about it submitting time off at work/booking hotel rooms lol. This is what I was planning on doing, but didnโt know if there was already another date released thatโd be a good enough indicator
We made rockets reusable and are rebuilding the internet in space. The next challenge: making life multiplanetary and understanding the true nature of the universe
Watch @ElonMusk deliver a company update to @SpaceX employees
@GrantObi Straight up, they mightโve attached some points in the engine bay to the big raft, and then the lead lines connect to the raft. Either that or they have holes already built in that theyโre using for this purpose
@HerrJohnssen@SpaceX Ahhh ok. I was thinking theyโd take off 2-3 tiles and tack weld an anchor point on to tow because that could be done easily too. Probably a safety concern due to the waves causing instability
