Can someone explain why this launch was different? I thought SpaceX was already landing rockets?

Starship and the booster combined are almost 400 feet tall, the booster is about 230. Something like 700 tons I think? Much bigger than anything else anyone has landed. Also being reusable and the fuel being methane means if it works not only is the moon landing much more realistic but also Starlink (the current version is just a precursor)
