Spacex Starship Makes History: Rocket’s Upper Stage Caught by Mechazilla | Starlink Satellite | N18g

SpaceX has achieved a major milestone in its push to make Starship fully reusable. In an unprecedented feat, the Starship spacecraft — the rocket’s upper stage — returned from orbit and was caught by the giant mechanical arms of the Mechazilla launch tower at the company’s Starbase facility in South Texas.

The successful catch followed a 22.5-hour mission during which Starship completed 14 orbits of Earth and deployed 26 Starlink satellites. The spacecraft then re-entered the atmosphere, manoeuvred back towards its launch site and made a controlled upright landing into the tower’s waiting arms.
