    Excellent information. "countless setbacks". More like a handful, all of which were overcome very quickly by the SpaceX engineers and technicians on the way to Falcon 9 Block 5, the SpaceX launch vehicle masterpiece. Falcon 9 met and won two of the most important challenges for the SpaceX Mars enterprise: Supersonic retropropulsion and vertical landing of an orbital class launch vehicle, i.e. the F9 booster. Those milestones were accomplished over eight years ago (22Dec2015).

    i messed with this in kerbal. adding parachutes and other recovery systems adds weight and reduces delta v meaning the rocket wont go as far and it can be drastic and also more expensive. the most efficient thing to do is strip it all down bare then do a little burn close to the surface.. youll have more fuel to do it because you saved it by cutting weight. adding a couple parachutes could be the difference of not having the fuel you otherwise would have had.

    Third reason why parachutes wouldn’t work with the F9 compared to the Space Shuttle’s SRB’s: the SRB’s didn’t have complex engines but just nozzles from the solid rocket fuel. Hence, these type of engines could much better deal with salty ocean water…

For example, reporting on a present event but putting old footage of the people involved. The script is usually higher quality than the footage representing it, but in the aspect of matching things.

    Slight correction of the landing process.
    In the final burn for landing, its not "the engines", last burn is the single central engine.
    And its a single engine, because even at minimum thrust, its still too high to hover.
