      Super Heavy, which is the first stage of the stack, is what came back to the launch pad and was "caught."
      Everything went pretty much to plan this time. Starship wasn't planned to be recovered as they're still figuring out the reentery phase, which is why they landed it in the ocean. The next step will be trying to catch Super Heavy again at the launch site while also bringing Starship back from orbit and landing it on the ground.

      The oddity of doing this on the Mexican border is certainly an interesting choice. I am sure they were not thinking of geopolitics at all in choosing the location. But still .... Mexico has had such a struggle for the past few decades. Its long been the Latin American nation with so much unfulfilled promise - always on the edge of greatness but torn down by internal problems and overshadowed by the US.
      I just imagine what it must be like to be a little kid in the Frontera on the Mexican side and see the Americans doing something like this. It must be a bizarre sense of awe.
