The first Starship to return to its launch site, Ship 40's journey took it across air, space, and sea. Now that it is vertical alongside three other Starships in a Megabay at Starbase, it will provide first-of-its-kind data on a flown Starship heatshield, Raptor engines, avionics, and more.

Meanwhile, the JCSAT-14 mission webcast team…
I think we need @danhuot Kate and @whoisheartbreak as the hosts for Flight 14. The people NEED the 3 MUSKeteers back together for this major milestone flight!

ABSOLUTE SPACEX 🙌
A fully and rapidly reusable rocket will fundamentally change how humanity accesses outer space. “The Holy Grail of Rocketry” continues the ongoing Starship series with a look back at the scrappy days of SpaceX engineers proving reuse was possible and takes you onboard a high-seas race to recover a floating Starship

After approx. 24 days at sea, the SpaceX Recovery team successfully guided Starship to a location just off the coast of Christmas Island. A team of SpaceX engineers is on their way to conduct additional analysis on the vehicle in calmer waters before attempting to return it to Starbase

Comparing the before and after of the explosion in New Glenn, it's possible to see that one of the lightning rod towers on LC-36 and the strongback have completely disappeared.
