Description

SpaceX are experts at using the atmosphere to help control their wonderful contraptions make pinpoint landings. We're taking a look at how they use grid fins the land their boosters like Falcon 9, Falcon Heavy and their upcoming Super Heavy. Then we'll contrast that with how their Starship (Formerly BFR) will tackle the atmosphere during reentry at Earth or entry at Mars by utilising differential drag by moving it's lower fins and upper canards.
