Comment on Land where
victorz@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoSounds like the real reason right here. The sea landing surely is a lot easier and quicker to recover as well.

It’s also much easier to hit what you aim for
water -> water Land -> oops, that’s a tree, and that’s a boulder, and that’s a lake.

Also where they are taking off and landing in Russia is a big flat wasteland. It’s the ocean of the land. There isn’t a lot of empty space in the US unless you are either in the desert or in the places we grow corn and wheat. Less shit to crash into when it’s water in the US.

Also, water is bouncy and land is hard. There’s no way it’s not easier on the crew and capsule.
