About a year ago, @TesLatino had me on his podcast to talk about the Starship return trajectory for a catch at Starbase.
In that interview, I used some animations by @mcrs987 & documents from the FAA EIS to help show what we might expect to see.
With Flight 15 coming up this Friday, I thought it would be a good time to repost this clip of that video to help refresh you on what this rather remarkable flight path and terminal approach is going to be like if Ship 42 is able to complete its initial orbital insertion, ~14 orbits and ~22 hours and then return to Starbase for a catch attempt.
It’s going to be thrilling, a massive (almost shocking) spectacle, and of course, excitement will be guaranteed for sure!
