While the integration tower used for launch could support Super Heavy landings, an additional landing tower would reduce launch pad refurbishment needed between each launch, providing a shorter turnaround period between launches, and increase the efficiency of launch
operations. The catch tower would be approximately 480 feet (146 meters) tall and be similar in appearance to the existing integration tower. No launches would occur from the catch tower.
Podstatne:As Starship slows down during its landing approach, a sonic boom would be generated. If landing at the catch tower, another plume would be
generated and the deluge system would be employed, utilizing approximately 68,000 gallons of water. Following a successful landing, Starship would go into an automatic safing sequence (i.e., put the vehicle in a safe state). After Starship is in a safe state, a mobile hydraulic lift would raise Starship onto a transporter
