SpaceX Starship made a triumphant return to Earth, caught midair by giant mechanical ‘chopsticks’.
It was the grand finale that Elon Musk and his team hoped for – the first-ever capture of a Starship flying back from space.
It felt like stepping into the future.
Le retour du premier étage du lanceur géant a été avorté pour des raisons inconnues, mais l’étage supérieur a lui été recouvré avec succès samedi 14 novembre, après avoir passé près de vingt-quatre heures en orbite.
SpaceX officials say catch by mechanical arms shows Starship's full reusability, crucial for rapid, low-cost recycling.
Ένα σημαντικό ορόσημο στην ανάπτυξη του διαστημικού σκάφους Starship πέτυχε η SpaceX του Έλον Μασκ, καθώς κατάφερε να ανακτήσει με επιτυχία το ανώτερο τμήμα του πυραύλου κατά την επιστροφή του στη διαστημική βάση Starbase, στο Τέξας. Το Σάββατο, έπειτα από 22 ώρες τροχιακής πτήσης και 14 περιστροφές γύρω από τη Γη, το σκάφος, μήκους άνω ... Περισσότερα www.e

It was the first recovery of a Starship from orbit, a major milestone for a rocket SpaceX founder Elon Musk says will dramatically lower launch costs.
Nach 22 Stunden in der Erdumlaufbahn ist ein Starship zum Startplatz zurückgekehrt und wurde dort von zwei Greifarmen aufgefangen. Zuvor lief nicht alles rund.
Het Amerikaanse bedrijf SpaceX van Elon Musk is erin geslaagd om zijn Starship-raket na lancering opnieuw op te vangen. Het was de eerste keer dat het bedrijf dit probeerde, en meteen met succes. Gisteren was SpaceX er niet in geslaagd om de eerste rakettrap, de boosters, op te vangen. In het verleden lukte dat kunstje wel al.
Elon Musk’s company falls short of desired double capture after booster exploded shortly after lift-off on Friday
SpaceX rymdfarkost Starship landade i Texas, USA, under lördagskvällen efter sin längsta flygning hittills. Den lyckade landningen säkrade också den första återvinningen av raketsystemets centrala farkost i företagets historia.
It was the grand finale that Elon Musk and his team hoped for.
SpaceX has performed the historic catch using mechanical arms nicknamed "chopsticks".

It was the grand finale that Elon Musk and his team hoped for — the first-ever capture of a Starship flying back from space. But with the first-stage booster exploding shortly after Friday's liftoff from Texas, the company fell short of its desired double catch.
Cette récupération constitue une avancée considérable dans le développement de la plus grande et la plus puissante fusée jamais construite, conçue pour réaliser des voyages vers la Lune et Mars et envoyer des data centers dans l’espace.

Wichtiger Schritt in der Raumfahrtentwicklung: Elon Musks Unternehmen SpaceX hat es geschafft, die obere Stufe des »Starship«-Systems nach einem Testflug wieder aufzufangen. Ein voller Erfolg war das Manöver trotzdem nicht.
After aborting a planned catch of Starship Flight 15's booster, SpaceX successfully captured Starship with its "Mechazilla" launch and catch tower for the first time. The company has performed 'chopstick' catches of its boosters before, but this is the first time the maneuver has successfully been executed on the Starship vehicle itself. SpaceX CEO Elon […]
The company's spacecraft returned to its Texas launchpad in dramatic fashion — by carefully lowering itself until two metal arms attached to the launch tower could secure it.
Starship Test Flight 15 marked the first time Elon Musk's company tried to catch both the booster and upper stage of the rocket.
While the company has pulled off this trick a few times with Super Heavy boosters, it was a first for the Ship.
Après avoir renoncé vendredi à rattraper le premier étage de sa mégafusée Starship en raison d'un incident technique, l'entreprise SpaceX d'Elon Musk veut samedi tenter d'en récupérer le second après plus de 22 heures de vol, ce qui constituerait une prouesse technique.
SpaceX a lancé le quinzième vol d'essai de sa mégafusée Starship avec des objectifs particulièrement ambitieux. L'entreprise a renoncé à récupérer le premier étage, mais espérait réussir la récupération du second. Pour Frédéric Castel, journaliste spécialisé dans l'espace, le bilan est celui d'un "succès partiel".

SpaceX launched its massive Starship rocket on its 15th test flight on Friday, but it was unsuccessful in controlling the booster's landing. The company has successfully caught the rocket's booster three times before. Jason Allen has the story.
One way or another, the company will get some more data on Saturday.
The test flight is SpaceX's first attempt to catch both the Super Heavy booster and upper stage spacecraft of the rocket at its launch site in Starbase, Texas.
SpaceX's attempt to recover its entire Starship back at the launch pad was thwarted when the booster malfunctioned and ended up in the water Friday, but the spacecraft still soared into orbit in its boldest test yet.

Trwa 15 lot testowy systemu Starship od SpaceX. Jeden z etapów misji zakończył się niepowodzeniem - pierwszy stopień rakiety, booster Super Heavy, nie wylądował z powrotem w bazie, ale został zwodowany w Zatoce Meksykańskiej. Na orbicie okołoziemskiej pozostaje jednak sam statek, który zgodnie z planem ma wrócić do bazy.
