SpaceX's CEO, Elon Musk, recently discussed the ambitious goal of the company during a July interview. Musk acknowledged that the plan for the upcoming flight may seem 'insane' but expressed confidence in its potential success. He emphasized that the project is not defying the laws of physics, indicating that success is a realistic outcome.
Prior to this, Musk had mentioned that there was a high probability, estimated at 80% to 90%, that SpaceX would be able to achieve the goal of catching the booster back at the launch tower by 2024. This innovative approach demonstrates the company's commitment to pushing the boundaries of space technology.
