Elon Musk

If you squint and you look very closely, one is the...

and one is the booster that's kind of rapidly coming back down to earth.

And what will happen very, very soon, because we're at the four minutes, 30 second mark, is those inside the capsule, the six of them, will get a one minute warning where they've been through this training process

um where they'll buckle themselves back in and then it's good old-fashioned rocket science where the flat bottom of the capsule and earth's gravitational pull brings it back down into earth's atmosphere and we can kind of go from that

And we can continue.

This is like a 10-minute process, and we're already, as you say, at the halfway point, Ed.

We'll go to Lauren Grush, who helps cover all things space across our network and platforms for us.

And Lauren, this seems to be going all according to plan, as we think, but space very much in line of sight of investors at the moment, but also of the market more broadly.

We're thinking about Elon Musk, who's just come off stage over at Davos, talking about how his reusable giant rocket might be there by the end of this year in terms of reusability.

Yes, that is the ultimate goal of Starship, which they've been pursuing for some time.

Full reusability, you know, actually the New Shepard is a fully reusable system, but it obviously does not go to orbit.

And so Starship is really trying to accomplish a feat.

And we'll obviously be keeping an eye out on those Starship test flights, which are always so fun.

But yeah, that will be a big moment if they can make it happen.

We've got Bloomberg's Lauren Grush.

She leads our coverage on space.

And on the left-hand side of your screen, we've got the downward camera on the New Shepard booster as it returns down to Earth.

We're about six minutes in, Lauren.

Booster descending.

And then the capsule, any second, will start descending.
