SpaceX prepares for Starship's sixth test flight with Donald Trump in attendance
SpaceX is set to conduct its sixth test flight of the Starship megarocket on November 19. This flight aims to catch the Super Heavy booster using mechanical arms at the launch tower, building on a successful test in October. President-elect Donald Trump is expected to attend the launch, which has led to temporary flight restrictions in the area. This test will also include new objectives, such as reigniting the Starship’s engines in space and conducting heat shield experiments. This flight represents the quickest turnaround between two Starship tests, highlighting SpaceX's progress. The company is focused on developing reusable rockets for future missions, including NASA's Artemis program and potential Mars exploration.
