Still insane to me that this actually happened. Prior to Tianlong-3's incident launching during a static fire was treated as a ridiculous joke and something that could never actually happen in the modern age.

I don't think people who started following the starship program after flight 2 can truly understand just how insane watching the booster fly with 33 Raptors ignited was. Almost no one thought this would happen, saying it would happen was considered a joke.

CRS 7 is the only time Falcon 9 has ever failed during first stage flight. It was caused by a COPV in the second stage coming loose and striking the tank dome after a strut holding it in place broke.

It's crazy that SpaceX decided to actually fly booster 7 after all the stuff it went through. 🎥: NASASpaceflight

I still can't believe this is real. Where were you when you watched booster 12 get caught?

This shot still gives me chills every time I see it. It's one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.
