Spacex 'catches' rocket booster.

Spacex, yesterday, successfully caught the returning first-stage booster minutes after the launch of its fifth Starship test flight in a historic first!

Catching the booster

The launch tower sported monstrous metal arms that caught the descending booster. It comes after the US regulator granted SpaceX its long-awaited licence to move forward with the fifth test launch of Starship.

How it helps SpaceX

Recycling boosters will help SpaceX speed up the launch rate and save millions in cost.

Tailpiece.

Got up at a quarter past 5, the chores and was ready by a quarter to 10.

A bright and sunny day but by evening, it was raining.

It was a quiet day.
