The first #Falcon 9 🚀 #landing succeeded in December 📆 2015. #SpaceX performed its 200th #rocket #booster landing 📆 June 13 2023.

When do you expect the 3rd successful #Starship landing (with booster) ?

@spaceflight I think the main failures last time were the lost engines and TVC, causing the uncontrolled spin. It sounds like they're addressing those with better engine reliability and electric instead of hydraulic TVC.

I think that means the next big failure point will be stage separation. Without knowing how they'll shield the 1st stage or what the release mechanisms are, I probably would have voted for "failure during stage sep" if that was an option.
