Original: SpaceX's recovered Starship after Flight 13 splashdown returns to Texan port

SpaceX has brought its recovered Starship back to a Texas port following the vehicle's Flight 13 splashdown. The return of the first recovered Starship to Starbase marks a milestone in the company's effort to make the giant rocket rapidly reusable, with engineers expected to inspect the hardware closely for damage from reentry and ocean landing.

Why now: The first recovered Starship returning to port is a significant step in SpaceX's reusability programme.
