SN8 Test Flight - Just Wow!

Well that was awesome. Starship SN8 just made its first (and only test flight). Really does make a return to the Moon and on to Mars seem so much closer than the Team Artemis announcement.
T - 2m16s

That belly-flop was just awesome

Imagine that filled with a platoon of Imperial Marines!

Just about to touch down when the fuel pressure goes



OK so it didn't end well but it proved so much, just seeing the belly flop and swing actually work was quite something, and I'm sure SN9 will nail it on the next test.
