Me thinks you are rapidly heading toward your first gold space cadet medal. That's PM though.23:45 BST. Not really civilised though because Martin's attitude will be...

July 25Jul 25 Great flight! The heavy booster appeared to have a problem with landing. It did not splash down, it smashed down, a hard landing. Starship worked perfectly and had a gentle splash down, then slowly fell onto its side and floated.

July 25Jul 25 Author Amazing that Starship stayed afloat. And great camera views.We will have to see if they go orbital next time and a catch of the booster.They may decide on a repeat of this flight.
July 25Jul 25 Full orbit, de-orbit burn, and landing back at the launch pad for Starship. Capture by the launch tower arm for the booster. Deployment of little red flag that says "next stop, Mars". That's what I am looking for with respect to Flight 14.
