Elon Musk has shared SpaceX simulations of the catching of the SpaceX Starship and booster.
Being able to make the Mechazilla SpaceX catch system will enable SpaceX to a launch, land and relaunch three times a day.
A normal landing, maintenance, craning the booster and starship onto crawlers and moving 1 mph via crawler would mean about one or may two launches a week.
