SpaceX sucessfully launches Starship in third flight test
The Verge
·

Medial
SpaceX's Starship had a successful test flight, becoming the first to complete its full-duration ascent burn. The vehicle demonstrated its ability to separate from its Super Heavy booster and opened a payload door. However, contact with the Starship was lost shortly before splashdown. Despite this setback, SpaceX plans to continue increasing its launch cadence throughout the year. The Super Heavy booster experienced a rapid unscheduled disassembly during its landing attempt. The Starship did not attempt its planned on-orbit relight due to vehicle roll rates. This was SpaceX's third test flight for the Starship rocket.

The FAA has completed its investigation into SpaceX's second Starship test flight and has closed the inquiry. SpaceX has identified the causes of the failed test and implemented corrective actions, clearing the way for the third test flight pending necessary adjustments. During the second test, issues caused the Super Heavy booster to explode and the upper stage to end prematurely. SpaceX has addressed the problems by implementing fixes and hardware changes for future Starship vehicles. The third test flight is anticipated to take place in March.

The Federal Aviation Administration has granted SpaceX a license for the third test flight of its Starship Super Heavy vehicle. The launch window opened on March 14th, and SpaceX is targeting a splashdown in the Indian Ocean instead of near Hawaii for this attempt. The company aims to achieve several ambitious objectives during this flight, including propellant transfer demonstration, re-lighting an engine in space, and a controlled reentry of Starship. SpaceX has met all safety and environmental requirements, following corrective actions suggested by the FAA after previous explosive landings.

Elon Musk's SpaceX is set for a Thursday test flight of its Starship rocket, the world's largest and most powerful. Standing 403 feet tall, the uncrewed flight aims to improve reliability and performance after a previous mid-air explosion. The Starship, vital to Musk's Mars colonization vision, also serves NASA's lunar goals. Despite past setbacks and FAA scrutiny, SpaceX plans to eventually make Starship fully reusable, marking a breakthrough for multiplanetary living.

A SpaceX Starship rocket exploded on a test stand in Texas during preparations for its tenth test flight. The explosion, caused by a failure in a pressurized tank, resulted in no injuries or hazards to nearby residents. SpaceX was set for a "static fire" of the Starship’s Raptor engines, with the test likely delaying further flights. This follows a series of setbacks for Starship despite plans for a Mars mission in 2026.

SpaceX’s Starship successfully completed its third flight test, reaching orbital velocity after a hot-stage separation with the booster rocket. However, the mission ended in failure as the vehicle was lost during re-entry, preventing the scheduled splashdown in the Indian Ocean. This marks the latest setback for Starship, following two unsuccessful attempts in 2020. SpaceX has concluded its live broadcast, and further updates on the mission will be provided as they become available.

SpaceX's ninth Starship test saw mixed outcomes, with the spacecraft reaching orbit but losing control during re-entry, ending in the Indian Ocean. This test marked the first use of a flight-proven Super Heavy booster. Despite successes in separation and ascent, a planned cargo hatch deployment failed and the spacecraft spiraled out of control later. Following prior explosions, the FAA expanded safety zones, and SpaceX implemented hardware improvements to enhance reliability.

SpaceX will try to 'catch' the world's largest and most powerful rocket Starship after it completes its fifth test flight in late July, CEO Elon Musk revealed. Musk was replying to a user who posted a video showing how giant mechanical arms would catch Starship instead of letting it simply land. This may drastically reduce the turnaround time for Starship.
