Well done!
So Elon recently posted a bunch of closeups of the SN3 #Starships's underbelly.
In the photos you can see parts of the landing leg assembly, so I spent couple of hours trying to visualize how they might work.
@elonmusk is this even remotely close?pic.twitter.com/Oq8YWaMuil

And each pogo leg could automatically compensate for minor debris or surface irregularities on the landing pad

The images looked like crush core, rather than actual shock-absorbing gear.

They’ll need that actual shock-absorbing gear eventually, though. Each Earth-Mars-Earth flight will see two duty cycles on those legs. Crush core won’t do for that.
