SpaceX to Launch 10th Flight Test of Starship After Multiple Delays
SpaceX's 10th Starship test flight delays stem from weather and technical issues, impacting NASA's Artemis III timeline and ongoing rocket development efforts.
- SpaceX postponed the tenth test flight of its 403-foot Starship rocket on Tuesday at Starbase, Texas, due to bad weather conditions.
- The delay followed an earlier scrub on Sunday caused by a ground-system leak, marking the second consecutive postponement for the test flight.
- Starship has suffered multiple failures this year, including explosions of the upper stage during three test flights and a June static fire test, which challenge its reusability goals.
- SpaceX announced that today's flight test was postponed because of unfavorable weather conditions, with Elon Musk noting the decision was made due to the presence of anvil clouds near the launch area, which posed a risk of lightning.
- The delay postpones progress toward Musk's vision of using Starship for Mars colonization and NASA's 2027 Artemis lunar mission, as the Starship team evaluates the next best launch opportunity.
