SpaceX Cancels Starship’s 10th Test Flight Due to Technical Issues
(MENAFN) U.S. private aerospace firm SpaceX halted the highly anticipated 10th flight test of its massive Starship rocket on Sunday, citing technical difficulties.
The launch was planned for 6:30 p.m. Central Daylight Time (2330 GMT) at SpaceX’s Starbase facility in Texas, but the company reported a problem with ground systems that forced the mission to be canceled.
This milestone flight was set to replicate goals from earlier tests, including Starship’s inaugural payload deployment and a series of reentry trials aimed at returning the upper stage to the launch site for a catch, according to SpaceX.
The Starship system—comprising the Starship spacecraft and the Super Heavy booster—is a fully reusable launch vehicle engineered to transport crew and cargo to Earth orbit, the Moon, Mars, and beyond.
