IFT-5 — Super Heavy Caught by Mechazilla Arms
In perhaps the most dramatic engineering achievement since the first Falcon 9 landing, IFT-5 saw the Super Heavy booster caught mid-air by the mechanical 'chopstick' arms of the Starbase launch tower — the first time any full-scale rocket booster had been caught. Ship 30 simultaneously performed a precision ocean splashdown near Kauai.
