And there we go, 547 times.

So this has become completely like or like absolutely routine for SpaceX.

They have mastered landing and reusing the booster of their Falcon 9 rocket.

So if they're light enough payload, they'll be able to they can land them, you know, light enough payload or not far enough, like not far destination, like just Leo.

They can land them back here, like right back where they took off the booster.

Yeah, the booster.

And otherwise, like when they're doing their Starlink missions, which is like 90% of their launches, those ones, just so they can get the most out of the booster, they land them on these floating.

They're like a football field sized platform.

They land them and then they tow them back in.

So just constantly sending these things out to catch them because then, you know, they can follow the trajectory.

So they can let go of the booster.

Let's go to the second stage.

Second stage goes off into orbit.

The booster basically coasts and follows its ballistic trajectory.

And they more or less put the drone ship where it's going to fall.

And then it guides itself with these grid fins.

Wow.

And then they need to be able to know exactly the precise time to be able to how to guide like a guided.

It's a giant guided missile.

This thing's 15 stories tall.
