SpaceX's new Starship booster catch animation! 🔥

The plan is to catch the booster as soon as it can land on its virtual tower (soft water landing) in the Gulf of Mexico.

The next flight after that will see a catch attempt at Starbase. Possibly as soon as IFT-5!

NEWS: Elon Musk says if SpaceX can successfully land Starship on a “virtual tower” during flight 4 next month, then they will actually try with flight 5 to come back and land on the tower.
