    Default heligrid capture deck?

    Help me out here...how does this work? I see posts and a grid but I'd guess it to be like a hip and ball and socket to capture? http://www.heligrid.com/how-it-works.html Spacex might use a similar design for the boost back and land on a barge at sea. Who dosnt love machined porn.

    Looks like a giant version of a ball grid array from electronics (sort of...).
