Both test articles made a simulated landing (coming to a stop a few feet above the ocean) to prove they could land safely on drone ships/launch site

Yep, they only lost a flap. Next time they'll nail it, regulatory paperwork should be faster this time so hopefully next month

its okay I forgot too bb, only noticed it bc one youtube recommended some spacex thing when I was watching that caleb hammer vid
anyways looks like the flight overall went pretty well? the booster's soft splashdown looked nearly flawless (one of the engines went out but there's so many it apparently doesn't matter)
I know there's a bunch of naysayers but I still think this thing's gonna be regularly launching by the end of the decade. Sure that's "late" by their timeline but given that it's categorically larger than anything else I still think it's impressive.

They lost a flap during re-entry but the ship still managed to splashdown without breaking apart.
