Vertical landing technology

Vertical landing technology allows aircraft or spacecraft to land upright on a fixed surface without needing a runway. It involves powerful thrusters or rotors that can control descent, stabilize the vehicle, and gently touch down. This technology is used in helicopters and some space vehicles, like SpaceX's Starship, enabling landing in confined areas and on surfaces without traditional runways. It enhances safety and flexibility by allowing precise control during landing, making it possible to reach remote or diverse locations efficiently.
