Starship is designed to fundamentally alter humanity’s access to space, ultimately enabling us to make life multiplanetary. The third flight test of Starship and Super Heavy made tremendous strides towards this future and was an important step on the road to rapidly reliable reusable rockets. "20...
Starship can also fly to the surface of the Moon (Figure 2), along with deploying and retrieving very large payloads in cislunar space. Although not on the critical path for flights to Mars, flights to the Moon do provide the opportunity to test and demonstrate Starship systems closer to E...
"Starship’s second flight test achieved a number of major milestones and provided invaluable data to continue rapidly developing Starship. Each of these flight tests continue to be just that: a test. They aren’t occurring in a lab or on a test stand, but are putting flight hardware in a...

SpaceX的首个Starship原型机MK1(也就是之前为了Musk的发布会而赶工完成的那架),在稍早的加压测试中发生意外,整个顶端因巨大的压力而“蹦开”,向上抛飞了上百米的高度。所幸这仅是不可燃的液态氮,因此并没有发生爆炸,也无人伤亡。 火箭的燃料槽基本上就是个巨大的压力锅,除了低温的液态燃料外,也要承受蒸发的气...

It also flies a new trajectory, with Starship targeted to splashdown in the Indian Ocean. The new flight path enables the mission team to attempt new techniques like in-space engine burns while maximizing public safety, according to Sp...
SpaceX has announced when it will hold the next test of its Starship rocket. Itwill be the third test flight of the vehicle to date. The launch aims to send the vehicle, consisting of the Super Heavy booster and the Starship spacecraft, on a new trajectory, with a splashdown in the In...
and back. I still feel like I'm a SpaceX'er and that I'm a part of the company. Starship is greatly lowering the cost and increasing access to LEO. But it's going to have a hard time getting to the higher energy orbits...
"Flight tests like today are the fastest possible route for us to dramatically improve Starship's capabilities. The Starship flying today has already seen a number of changes based on what we learned from flight test three in March, which was only two-and-a-half months ago," Tice said. "...
