You can go far even with a simple idea.

Is it reusable?

As a technology enthusiast with a few gaps in my knowledge, I hope to find an answer here. According to Newton's axioms, you need the most energy when starting and accelerating. But energy is also consumed when braking. In order to start a rocket and accelerate it, Newton's first and second axioms probably come into play. When landing rockets, the first law would be omitted since it only deals with systems that are in a state of rest. However, to land, you would have to use energy to counteract the earth's gravity. Now my question is, how much energy is needed to land a rocket and how much more fuel do you have to take with to land a rocket?

Congratulations ! 🚀 We are proud to be a part of this amazing and exciting project!

Best of luck and keep growing. A collaborative and interactive (between different space agencies world wide like JAXA, ESA, ISRO, NASA, ROSCOSMOS, CNSA etc.) development is the only way to face the challenges of deep space and know more about it.

That makes sense, as it was the first almost successful launch ... when are #Sentinel-1C and -1D going up ?
