@elonmusk let us apply the word ´flyback´ to Tesla - ask him what he thinks about it
Base is 300 ft by 100 ft, with wings that extend width to 170 ft. Will allow refuel & rocket flyback in future.

Is refuel&flyback still in the plans now that the final (v5) of the F9 has been designed? will retractable legs support weight of fueled F9?

@elonmusk is the ASDS for defeating regulations or physics? -
@moneyman10k@elonmusk Both. Refueling and flyback means it's useful for greater payload F9 and FH core even after flyback approval. -
@Robotbeat good point! given elon's cost-magic, it seems totally valid to do this affordable work now, whether it's necessary or not! -
@Robotbeat I have trouble interpreting my own stuff when I read it back. this last one was totally not sarcastic. neither is this.. shit

@elonmusk: Thank you Elon! Now go and nail that sucker! IF you get a success the 1st or 2nd try, will you try to fly it for in-flight abort? -

@John_Gardi@elonmusk Seems ideal for edge cases where performance not quite enough to fly back but enough to follow ballistic trajectory. -
