A recovery system for receiving rockets upon landing comprising a deceleration pool filled with liquid. The system may have a volume filled with the liquid having a desired density profile. An injection manifold injects gas into the liquid to create the density profile. The liquid may have a first density at a landing region of the pool and a second density greater than the first density away from the landing region, such as increasing in density radially outward from a center of the landing region. The pool may be located under a primary landing system intended to secure the landing rocket, such as a hook catch. The pool may be a contingency system for mitigating damage to a landing rocket that unsuccessfully attempts securing with the primary landing system.
