SpaceX finally succeeded in catching the spaceship nose with a floating net in the middle of the sea

After a challenging launch of the Falcon Heavy vessel, SpaceX immediately performed another level performance: to capture the spaceship that was separated from the missile, slowly landing on the ground with parachute, SpaceX used use a grid placed on a boat floating in the middle of the wave.

To achieve today's success, SpaceX has been working hard for a year and a half. It should be added: the spacecraft's nose is a structure placed at the point of contact with the atmosphere with the missile, protecting the packages that accompany the Falcon Heavy breaking through the atmosphere to the Universe. When the big challenge passes, the bow will split and fall to Earth.

Normally, this nose is still empty, but like our mother, we often say: ' Give up your charge! 'So Musk also tried to keep the nose for recycling. Each of those protective nose costs millions of dollars!

At a press conference last year, Elon Musk smiled and answered: ' Imagine you have 6 million dollars in cash in the air, and about to crash into the sea. Are you going to catch them? Of course. '

The nose lies in the arms of the Lady Tree.

In order to catch the missile's nose, SpaceX uses a ship named 'Ms. Tree - Lady Tree ', with a big net. She Tree will hover over the sea constantly, guessing the trajectory of the spacecraft's nose and catching it correctly.

Only now can I catch the nose to study. The next step will be to check if it can be reused.
