sim, é um bilau voador que perde a chapeleta.
https://www.blueorigin.com/news/blog...rocket-landing Rockets have always been expendable. Not anymore. Now safely tucked away at our launch site in West Texas is the rarest of beasts, a used rocket. This flight validates our vehicle architecture and design. Our unique ring fin shifted the center of pressure aft to help control reentry and descent; eight large drag brakes deployed and reduced the vehicle’s terminal speed to 387 mph; hydraulically actuated fins steered the vehicle through 119-mph high-altitude crosswinds to a location precisely aligned with and 5,000 feet above the landing pad; then the highly-throttleable BE-3 engine re-ignited to slow the booster as the landing gear deployed and the vehicle descended the last 100 feet at 4.4 mph to touchdown on the pad. When you watch the video you’ll see that we took the liberty of engineering all the drama out of the landing. Video of today’s mission: www.blueorigin.com/gallery. We are building Blue Origin to seed an enduring human presence in space, to help us move beyond this blue planet that is the origin of all we know. We are pursuing this vision patiently, step-by-step. Our fantastic team in Kent, Van Horn and Cape Canaveral is working hard not just to build space vehicles, but to bring closer the day when millions of people can live and work in space. Congratulations to the whole Blue Origin team on today’s amazing accomplishment. Gradatim Ferociter! Jeff Bezos PS - Soon you’ll be able to climb aboard New Shepard and come home an astronaut.

É um belo achievement pra uma empresa provada mas a SpaceX já faz isso há um ano (Pousar em pé em solo firme). O desafio agora é pousar em pé numa plataforma móvel.
