Flight 4 ended with Starship igniting its three center Raptor engines and executing the first flip maneuver and landing burn since our suborbital campaign, followed by a soft splashdown of the ship in the Indian Ocean one hour and six minutes after launch.
I still can’t believe that happened! Gives me so much confidence on their in-space propellant storage too, for some reason.
I just wish we had a video of it!
I know it’s a self-written report and therefore trying to put a positive spin on things (rightfully so - they did amazingly), but they didn’t even mention the exciting things that they want to do better next time, like better heat shields on the flaps.
