On November 18, 2023, Starship successfully lifted off at 7:02 a.m. CT from Starbase on its second integrated flight test. While it didn’t happen in a lab or on a test stand, it was absolutely a test. What we did with this second flight will provide invaluable data to continue rapidly developing Starship. The test achieved a number of major milestones, helping us improve Starship’s reliability as SpaceX seeks to make life multiplanetary. The team at Starbase is already working final preparations on the vehicles slated for use in Starship’s third flight test. Congratulations to the entire SpaceX team on an exciting second flight test of Starship!
Would that some (most?) of the media outlets stop reporting an astounding test achievement as a failure. 🙄 Whittle ideas. Fail fast. Expose weakness. #soundengineering #innovation
I love the phrase "unscheduled disassembly"!
Just incredible 🚀🙌
Haters need to realize that a lot of today's tech that does positively impact mankind were a result of the space program. I would argue what if every Hollywood actor, producer, singer/band, athlete, etc. lived oN $200K/year & donated the rest to "charity", wouldn't the world be better off? I challenge you or me to be the arbiter of who gets stuff and donates X amount to the rest of the world. You need to do more then you can lead by example then challenge the rest of the world. IMHO
Well done, it’s such an impressive feat for a spaceship that size and incredible when it lifted off.
Incredible. I love independent entrepreneurs.
Breathtaking 🚀
Inspiring!
Experience art over and over. Create value.
