I captured a shot of the SN8 Starship rising to 12km.
The whole flight was awesome, including the RUD landing!
Here it is!

I'm surprised anyone watched those lame doll cartoons.
Well, he didn't put the Starship down into a pool, but he did RUD it exactly where it was supposed to land.
Too bad the header tank was low on fuel and couldn't supply what was necessary to sustain sufficient thrust to land safely. The greenish glow during the landing was due to an attempt to increase thrust by using the hypergolic Triethylborane at the last moment. The first flight got a lot farther than I thought it would. I'll wager that his second attempt will land."A nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.”
