SpaceX just laid out Starship’s final path home before the first ever ship catch
• Last GO/no-go before flying over land; a no-go sends it into the Pacific before Mexico
• Over land about 25 minutes before catch, on a flight path designed to weave around populated areas
• Engine and tower check about 4 minutes before catch; a no-go diverts it into the Gulf
If every check is green, Mechazilla catches a Starship for the first time
