When they did that first time a few years ago with those two smaller booster rockets, I could not believe my eyes and my jaw dropped onto the table. The sight now again was nothing else but spectacular. Like a film that runs in reverse mode.



However, to land with a rocket this way on the moon is a concept I would not board the spacecraft for. Never. It violates my idea of "solid stand" too much, and there are the immense geological risks as well. You do not see what is under the surface and a geological collapse that a more robustly resting craft would survive, this rocket would not.



But the sight is spectacular.
