3 Raptor flight get 5+ minute burn and acrobatics
Didn't stick the landing, but Starship SN8 made the first 3-engine
Raptor flight, running a long burn, did the belly-flop into stable
terminal velocity flight, /relit/ the Raptors and flipped back to
vertical. Touchdown was with 1 Raptor, which wasn't as planned.
Elon's tweets are happy, RUD apparently due to insufficient header tank
pressure.
