GoKawiilSpaceX catches Starship upper stage for first time on Flight 15
SpaceX launched Starship's 15th test flight from South Texas, deploying 26 Starlink V3 satellites before successfully catching the Ship stage with the launch tower's chopstick arms for the first time. The Super Heavy booster, however, aborted its own catch attempt due to an issue during descent and instead diverted to splash down in the Gulf, where it exploded before impact.
