SpaceX will attempt to catch a massive rocket using "robot chopsticks", according to Elon Musk. The audacious plan could be carried out later this year during a major test of the Mars-bound Starship craft, which will see it blasted into orbit by a Super Heavy booster rocket. The so-called chopsticks refer to mechanical arms attached to SpaceX's launch tower – named'Mechazilla' by Mr Musk – which will help guide the booster rocket back down onto the pad. This system could eventually allow for rapid reusability and allow for multiple Starship launches in a single day, though chances of early success are far from guaranteed. "SpaceX will try to catch largest ever flying object with robot chopsticks," Mr Musk tweeted on Monday.
