FAA releases info about SpaceX clearance to Launch Starship flight 2

8 min • 15 november 2023

Hey folks, have you heard about SpaceX gearing up for their next Starship test? After the FAA finally gave them the thumbs up, they're looking at launching on November 17 from Boca Chica. It's been a bit of a rollercoaster since that dramatic mishap in April, huh?

Starship is seriously massive, like 400 feet tall! It's a huge deal for SpaceX, not just for their Mars dreams but also for NASA's Artemis program. But after what happened last time, the FAA had them jumping through hoops. They needed to fix a whole bunch of stuff, over 60 things, I think.

They've done a lot to get here, like adding this new flame deflector to protect the launchpad. Plus, they've tweaked the self-destruct system to be more reliable. It's been a huge undertaking to get back on track.
