Another epic Starship Update Felix, I am in information overload with so many things to look out for on the aerial and ground pictures (videos) 🚀

BTW: nice to see you’re allowed to use all the awesome shots from Boca Chica again. I hope you’re getting along with everyone again :-)

I've been thinking about the moment of Starship touch down and what might be going on there. Obviously there is a problem and I think I know what it is. There is a phenomena that happens with hovercraft where they actually fall off the cushion of air and contact the ground. Because there is so much room under that skirt an air cushion is created. The air pressure under the skirt rises as the vehicle descends. This pressure builds until a little burp of air pressure slips out from underneath the skirt. When this happens one side looses lift and contacts the ground hard enough to do minor damage. The solution is to cut some relief holes in the upper part of the skirt so the pressure can equalize. You wont need many and they wont have to be big.

Oh wow! I just saw your comment! I think, it's because of the asymetric thrust from one Raptor, but your explanation makes me thinking, if I am actually right!
