China just successfully performed a mid-air "net catch" recovery of a Long March 10B booster at sea.

Just saw the news that China’s long march 10B booster was recovered today using a net-cable system on a ship. We are all used to seeing SpaceX land rockets vertically on their legs by now so seeing someone actually try to catch one with a net is pretty wild. It’s a completely different way to solve the same problem. It’s cool to see more countries getting into the reusable rocket game. It feels like we are finally moving past the era where only one or two companies could do this.

What does everyone think about the net catch idea? Does it seem like a smart way to save weight or do you think the traditional leg landing style is still the way to go?
