SpaceX Starship IFT-5 Scheduled for This Morning after 6am



For those interested, there is a test flight of the SpaceX Starship scheduled for this morning sometime between 6am and 6.30am Eastern Time. This rocket has twice the thrust as the Saturn V rocket that sent men to the moon.

The primary objectives of this test will be attempting the first-ever return to the launch site and catch of a Super Heavy booster and another Starship reentry and landing burn, aiming for an on-target splashdown of Starship in the Indian Ocean. All stages are expected to be streamed live.

Here are excerpts from IFT-4, the fourth flight test that took place on June 6, 2024: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2BdNDTlWbo
