2 days agoSpaceX plans to launch Starship rocket on October 13
Circumstances might push the launch back a little, but following a successful static fire in late August, confidence in the rocket is high. That flight followed four consecutive failures (three in flight and one where SpaceX didn't bother to launch anything at all and exploded the vehicle on the ground instead). October's flight will be the final one of the version 2 variant of Starship ahead of version 3, which is due to debut in 2026.
