        And the dual Falcon Heavy booster landing way back.

        Back then the SLS programme seemed like the worst kind of wasteful mismanaged project that’ll never fly and would be made obsolete by Starship before complete, these days I’m glad there’s something left to cheer for since the only moral choice is to hope that everything SpaceX makes explodes on the pad.
