    Good job Team NSF, brilliant footage as usual. You make it look easy, we know it is a lot of work.
    It is Mary, Jack and Sean that are responsible for the 1miloin subs, producing this content every week. It is hard earned.

    • @knowledgeisgood9645
      @knowledgeisgood9645 13 днів тому +3

      The chopsticks don't need to do much snagging. All they need are to narrow the gap a little bit. The booster does the main work of landing.

      Who knows... It may be a terrible idea or it may be a great idea. Hard to know until you've tested it. SpaceX aren't afraid to try outlandish new things, and they're also not afraid to admit it doesn't work and move on to something else.
