Though I note the planned Ship engine relight did not happen. Would this not cause the ship to re-enter much too fast or off trajectory leading to its inevitable loss (or perhaps deliberate destruction) ? Isn't retardation what the planned burn was for?
Astonishing achievement. That system really looks like a practical space vehicle in a way no other has even remotely achieved to date. The future is going to be very excitng, and greatly improved if only they'd ditch the juvenile, trite and largely incoherent children commenting on it with all their repeated 'aasum' s and picking their jaws off the floor - and especially idiocy like 'rud' and all that goes with it. This is serious space stuff, not a cheap TV gameshow - better to treat it as such.
