This video of the Starship touchdown is INCREDIBLE -BUT- Ship 11 did not hold up as well as I initially thought. This thing was literally cooked. Nose on fire. Tiles missing everywhere. Lots of damage near flaps and burnthrough on tank. How reusable would this be?

You’ve likely heard of V/STOL (vertical and/or short take-off and landing) but what about BTOL (backwards take-off and landing)? The F-35 is truly an incredible flying machine and this shows how the US continues to innovate!! Let’s see the Su-57 do that!

I’m intrigued by the Beta Alia-250 electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) concept: ✅Fully electric, 450+ km range ✅Cruise at 270 km/hr ✅50 min recharge time ✅1/10 noise level of helicopter ✅6 passengers ✅Already multiple test flights Will this tech “take off”?
