    Apologies in advance about the layout as some logos might be blocked. This was the fastest way to get a multiview on my 4K display.

  3. 🚀 Ship 29 is at the launch site for its #StaticFire test. Gwynne #Shotwell stated that the goals 📝 for the #Starship program this year are to reach orbit, deploy #satellites 🛰️ , and recover both stages. All Starship needs to complete is at least an in-space 🌌 burn 🔥, and #SpaceX can start putting satellites into #orbit nasaspaceflight.com/2024/03/st

  4. According to #SpaceX: "...Booster 9 static fire successfully lit all 33 Raptor engines, with all but two running for the full duration..."

    All 33 ignited but 2 were lost after ignition. 31 out of 33 engines were firing full duration.

  6. #Starship : Ship 25 has already undergone cryo proofing at the Masseys test site and will next conduct a six-engine #StaticFire 🔥 test at the suborbital launch site. #Pad modifications should be complete in a month, ahead of another month of testing before the next test flight 🚀.
    The #Starbase production site’s layout changes will continue into next year, with old structures making way for new facilities 🏭 to be built in the area. nasaspaceflight.com/2023/05/sh
