Thanks for the link...I don't understand why they are saying nice work? Didn't it blow up upon landing?

i think it accomplished what they wanted by going back from horizontal to vertical.

I see, like an acceptable loss because they are learning from mistakes?

Exactly. Their testing philosophy is that u learn more from intentionally pushing the hardware until it breaks than if everything's perfect.

Brand new design and test, there was only a 40ish % chance of landing, or anything what they hoped. They have 2 more test vehicles line up
