Ilon Musk said that SpaceX plans to catch not only the Super Heavy booster but also the Starship spacecraft using the Mechazilla service tower in early 2025. Starship's fifth flight test was aimed at taking another step toward full and rapid reusability. The main objectives were to attempt the first ever return to the launch pad and capture the Super Heavy booster using Mehazilla, as well as the Starship's reentry in the Indian Ocean. The company made space history on October 13 by catching Super Heavy the first time. Before the last launch, developers completely redesigned Starship's heat shield, with SpaceX specialists spending more than 12,000 hours replacing the entire thermal protection system with next-generation tiles, a backup ablative layer and additional protection between the flap structures. By the way, after the launch it became known that the U.S. Federal Civil Aviation Commission issued a permit for the fifth Starship launch at the last minute, right before the launch.
