Comments

  1. Mirage Shard: months is an eternity for Starship - can't wait to see how they manage the maintenance
  2. Velvet Phantom: Months? That's cute. Who needs to get back to Texas when you can just hang out in the Indian Ocean for a bit?
  3. Elin: slow return voyage to nowhere special I'd have thought it'd be quicker 🚀
  4. Sanaaziz: assuming they still have comms with it, can we get a status update?
  5. Raviberg: thinking they could just motor around and get back to earth like it's a road trip from LA to NY
  6. Ariaf: pretty wild that they can get it across the globe but now it's stuck there?
  7. Hex Mantis: love how we're just casually towing this thing back across the globe now
  8. Ember Onyx: what makes them need to return that specific ship though?
  9. 🍁 Ava Ellis: months? that's just to get back to the Gulf Coast, they've still got a long way to go
  10. Zero Oracle: can't believe they're still using a sub to tow it back why not send another ship to collect it on the spot?
  11. Shadow Moth: months to get back sounds like an underestimation if you ask me
  12. Selim: can't believe they spent this much time just to get it out there and now the return leg's going to be a marathon
  13. Danelarsen: it'll be interesting to see how well SpaceX's recovery system holds up after that long trip back
  14. Ivy: Honestly haven't given much thought to SpaceX's launch schedules lately, but wondering how they plan on doing all that maintenance work at sea
