SpaceX Recreate ‘Lunch Atop a Skyscraper,’ One of History’s Most Famous Photos [Video]

SpaceX engineers recreated the famous 1932 image, ‘Lunch Atop a Skyscraper,’ to celebrate their work on a booster catch mechanism for spaceship launches.

SpaceX celebrated the achievement of its engineers who have worked for years on technology to “catch” a first-stage Super Heavy Booster by recreating one of the 20th century’s most iconic photos, Lunch Atop a Skyscraper.

SpaceX shared the posed recreation alongside a couple of other photos earlier this week on X, formerly known as Twitter. As spotted by Digital Trends, the SpaceX team is preparing to test its booster catch for the first time during the SpaceX Starship’s upcoming fifth test flight.
