Original Note:
SpaceX catches the Super Heavy Booster and in future, the Starship 2nd stage, to save mass and to reduce turnaround times. Instead of having heavy landing legs it is caught by the launch tower, and this mass saving means a heavier payload can be sent to orbit. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpaceX_Starship
