Zooming in on the video looks like that bot hits a peak of about 19 metres per second on approach, sometime like 40mph, lol

edit: when its 3m away, its still going 4 metres per second (but braking rapidly)

Another name for space pilot is actually "software engineer".

Get ready for a career upgrade...
