Default SpaceX SN10 Abort/Recycle

They aborted due to a slightly conservative high thrust limit on one of the Raptors. Musk said they will raise the limit and plan to try again in a couple hours.

Looks like they stuck it upright this time! A little leaning to it possibly, but no kaboom on landing this time.

...but sadly a kaboom about 10 minutes after the landing. Crazy!

Doh! Yeah, I had to cut and run right after the landing, so I missed that part. Well, dang. Was hoping they had gotten the ‘landing’ part all squared away finally. Sounds like they have a detail or two yet to get straight.

I was watching the whole time. That was pretty crazy! They did achieve the goal of the mission though.

If you want to go around the Moon on a Starship, now's your chance.

I wonder if they got all the data from the flight before it went kaboom. It'd be a shame if they didn't.
