VideoSpaceX reconnecting the SuperHeavy booster to the Booster Quick disconnect, robotically, just hours after the flight, without ever removing it from on the launch tower, a demonstration of eventually doing multiple flights per day per booster.

From LabPadre.

Note SpaceX is able to do this without any personnel on site, potentially massively improving safety compared to how it’s normally done with SLS, etc.
