This question might be a bit naive, but could someone explain to me if the SpaceX illustration (https://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/styles/full_width/public/thumbnails/image/starship_moon_astronauts.jpg?itok=dRfA9RhQ https://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/styles/full_width/p...) is feasible at all? From the (many, oh, so many) hours of KSP I've played landing legs seem to be the way to go with an uneven and uncertain and especially slightly sloped landing surface and not a flat rocket underside. Or is there any explanation how Space Ships are supposed to land? Thanks Thanks
- simonh 6y agoThat’s a really early render, from back when starship was going to be made from composite materials. At that time they hadn’t figured out the landing leg system, and anyway it’s changed several times since.
