@Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight There were baffles, but one may have acted like a straw to suck bubbles in from above liquid/gas level. Something similar happened on an early Falcon 1 flight, resulting in unexpectedly high liquid oxygen residuals at main engine cutoff.

@elonmusk @NASASpaceflight Are there baffles in future designs to prevent slosh?

@NASASpaceflight Fair point. If autogenous pressurization had been used, CH4 bubbles would most likely have reverted to liquid. Helium in header was used to prevent ullage collapse from slosh, which happened in prior flight. My fault for approving. Sounded good at the time.

@elonmusk @Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight Has the SpaceX team concluded with a better landing leg design for Starship?

@tobyliiiiiiiiii @Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight Might just catch the ship with the launch tower, same as booster

@Erdayastronaut @tobyliiiiiiiiii @NASASpaceflight Yeah, we talked about that internally. Could just have it land on a big net or bouncy castle. Lacks dignity, but would work. But, optimized landing propellant is only ~5% of dry mass, so it’s not a gamechanger.

@elonmusk @tobyliiiiiiiiii @NASASpaceflight Starship’s belly flop terminal velocity is already only like 75 m/s... what if... remove the 30 tones of landing prop, add 10 more tones of flaps, get that down to like 50 m/s and just use the world’s largest and most ridiculous net? 😂🤷‍♂️

Every failure brings with it the seed of an equivalent success.

Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.
