SpaceX’s Shocking Reveals Starship Booster Real Footage Data! Musk’s Reaction…
Landing the Starship no longer seems to be a difficult task for SpaceX and Elon Musk. Recently, the esteemed CEO once again affirmed the successful and gentle landing of the Booster 11 in the fourth light and even set a target for the next launch.
“Starship booster makes soft landing in water, next landing will be caught by the tower arms.”
And not only that, SpaceX and Elon Musk also have given us a close-up view of the Super Heavy landing—an event that has piqued curiosity since the Starship’s flight after 8 minutes.

Let’s analyze the intriguing details we can see in this video!
How was the way Super Heavy splashdown into the sea incredible?
What is the difference between the way SpaceX recovers Starship and the Falcon 9 booster?
The booster’s landing footage showed the rocket gliding back toward the water and engulfed in a vapor cone before its engines lit up for a landing burn.
This burn reduces the rocket’s speed for a smooth landing, and it is an essential part of the rocket’s landing profile since SpaceX eventually plans to catch it with the launch tower.

Before activating the landing engines, the Booster was at an altitude of 2 km, flying at a speed of over 1,200 km/h. However, just over 10 seconds later, when the Booster touched the water, the speed had decreased to only 9 km/h. Within this very short time frame, the engines demonstrated an excellent capability for deceleration during landing. This is a significant improvement compared to the third flight. In that flight, when Booster B10 was at an altitude of under 1 km, its speed was still over 1,100 km/h, which was the reason the vehicle couldn’t land.
