Oh hell yeah!!!! Congratulations to everyone involved in this audacious plan.

Never forget how this started And NEVER GIVE UP

The heatshield seems to be pretty mature at this point, too. The whole re-entry looked cleaner, somehow.

I feel like i’m about to have a heart attack

Absolutely incredible. The part that strikes me is how smooth the landing was. No bumps or anything...

42 is the answer, as the prophecy foretold!

That was incredible to watch man, so emotional

The music dude. So damn confident. Amazing

Got a little choked up….

Goddammit what a quote. "The holy grail of space flight... Plummeting through fire to be snatched out of the air by steel... We caught a Starship and now... everything changes. Let's do that again!"

Make a video ASAP please. Hook it to my veins.

The sight brought tears to my eyes. We live in incredible times and the best is yet to come….

I was so nervous waiting for the catch. I'm glad the raptors relit ok after the ship was in space for such a long time. It was a bold move to go for a catch attempt on the longest Starship mission to date. It's a shame about the booster, but at least that has been proven before.

The cloud cover kept me from seeing it coming down but we heard the sonic boom!

This is the flipping point of spaceflight… after all these years!!! I am so proud to witness this ❤️❤️

Awesome job everyone. Congratulations

For those curious that music wasn't edited in, they actually played it on actual livestream

The neatest thing is that getting rid of a hot pad means you avoid the need to shoo away alligators

Omg WOW

HOOOLLLY

Absolutely incredible

Ok. Congratulations. Doesn’t change my opinion of you know who

Holy hell, the madman was right. Peak humanity right here.

Picture perfect!!

This made my d... decade!!!

42 is the number!

Its so beautiful to see

Absolute cinema Well done lads.

I wonder if we'll get to see details on how the heatshield did, especially the fixes they've made on the gap filler? I'd guess this would also be a great opportunity to inspect, repair, and refurbish the tiles to get an initial run at what the procedure is going to entail, what issues need to be addressed, and the first real data point to start building some experience-based time and manpower estimates.

Absolutely FKG insane, congrats teams 👍😊👋

Did you do a Kerbal video of doing this? The real one is way cooler.

Wtf

They ruined the moment with awfully annoying background-music terror! 😡

Serious math involved.
