"Feels like science 🚀 fiction!" Google's CEO is enthusiastic about SpaceX's historic achievement from yesterday:.
For the first time ever, SpaceX was able to catch the Starship spacecraft in mid-air after returning from space!
After 22 and a half hours in space and 14 orbits around the Earth, Starship returned to Texas and was captured by the launch tower.
SpaceX has previously managed to capture the lower booster, but this is the first time it has captured the spacecraft itself after returning from space.
This achievement brings it closer to the goal: a completely reusable launch system, which will significantly reduce space flights.
SpaceX shares will be traded tomorrow and it will be very interesting to see how the market will react to the achievement...
