SpaceX’s Starship rocket achieved a major milestone by deploying its first mock Starlink satellites and testing new heat shield tiles on re-entry. This breakthrough comes after a series of testing challenges, highlighting Starship’s evolving capabilities.

In just six minutes, SpaceX’s Starship made history during its tenth suborbital flight from Starbase, Texas. Carrying eight Starlink simulators for the first time, this mission showcased unprecedented potential for payload delivery on future flights.

SpaceX’s Starship vaulted back into the limelight on August 26 with a successful tenth test flight. The milestone follows multiple setbacks earlier this year, signaling fresh momentum for the development program.

SpaceX’s Starship megarocket has been delayed by a full day, shifting its highly anticipated test flight to Monday. The company cited the need for additional troubleshooting, marking another obstacle for Elon Musk’s ambitious rocket program.

A SpaceX rocket undergoing tests at the company’s Texas facility erupted in a massive fireball late Wednesday night. Despite the dramatic explosion, no injuries were reported.
