This seems like it would be very hard to do, but with computers, the right software, and engines, it may not be all that tough.

Very interesting...

They learned from some very public and spectacular failures. It looks like they may need to aim off center a little more to compensate for the wind. But I think you’re right. Once they get all the bugs worked out (and they are just about there) it should be fairly routine.

Honestly, what amazed me most about it, was how late they ignite the engines. It’s only less than 30 seconds before touchdown.

If I was riding it down, I’d need a quick change before exiting the vehicle.
