We are talking about the first full flight tests of a fully integrated complex as part of the Starship spacecraft and the Super Heavy launch vehicle.
SpaceX intends to conduct the first test launch of the Starship spacecraft. It is due on Monday, April 17th. This was announced on Sunday, April 16, by the company’s founder Elon Musk Twitter.
“Try to launch tomorrow,” he wrote.
It is understood that the US Civil Aviation Administration has included the launch of the ship from the Boca Chica space center in Texas in the launch schedule for April 17 with a backup date of April 18-21.
SpaceX is building a reusable Starship spacecraft for deep space missions. It is higher than all the rockets created in the world: the height reaches 120 meters. According to Musk’s idea, this ship will be used to send people to the Moon and Mars.
Recall that SpaceX planned to carry out the first orbital launch of the rocket in 2021, but then the launch date was repeatedly postponed.
The reason is the requirements of the US Federal Aviation Administration at the Boca Chica spaceport to protect the environment.
The reusable rocket system consists of the Starship spacecraft and the Super Heavy carrier. Its height reaches 120 meters.
