In the coming days SpaceX will launch their Starship SN8 to a height of 15km. The test flight will gather data to help improve the flight & landing capability of future Starship prototypes. Many firsts will be attempted on this mission in the first of many. Good luck team SpaceX.
@SpaceX Any hints as to when we can expect this little puppy to launch.
