China has caught a booster! It joins the short list of countries that have recovered a booster, and the shorter list of countries that have recovered a booster intact and with a chance to reuse it.
Some of the remaining questions ... will this work on land sites? What
is the largest rocket it is practical for? How do the stresses compare
with landing legs in terms of booster longevity?
(10B is similar in size to a Falcon 9, no?)(tension vs compression)
How does it compare to other Chinese recovery systems? (the other two
I've seen anything on are using legs)
