SpaceX Starship Flight Test 14

Starship completed its first full orbital flight and splashed down in the Pacific Ocean.

A historic first for SpaceX as Starship splashes down in the Pacific after successfully reaching Earth's orbit for the first time. • • The spacecraft overcame an engine loss during ascent, reached orbit roughly 26 minutes after liftoff, and deployed 26 Starlink satellites before returning to Earth. • • SpaceX cut the mission shorter than its planned 10-hour flight, bringing Starship down after about three hours in orbit. • • Download the FOX News app to follow this developing story:

Starship successfully landed after first orbital flight The spacecraft landed in the Pacific Ocean near the Hawaiian Islands. The mission was cut short after engineers checked the onboard systems - instead of the planned 10 hours, Starship spent a little more than three hours in flight. At the same time, SpaceX considers this test flight - the 14th in a row - to be "extremely successful": despite the failure of one of the engines, Starship successfully entered Earth's orbit for the first time and launched all 26 Starlink satellites.

This is the 14th test flight for this SpaceX rocket system. The modification that launched today has the highest altitude of all previous Starship — more than 100 m. Starship should play a key role in NASA's Artemis program, aimed at returning people to the Moon, and potentially in a future flight to Mars. Add News.LIVE as a reliable news source on Google]

*SPACEX: STARSHIP SPLASHES DOWN IN OCEAN AFTER KEY FLIGHT

Footage of the Starlink satellite launch from Starship, the largest rocket in history, which successfully entered Earth orbit for the first time. The 14th test flight took off from the SpaceX Starbase cosmodrome in Texas. The ship had previously ascended to space, but all launches were suborbital, never achieving a stable orbit. After liftoff, Starship separated from the Super Heavy booster, which splashed down successfully in the Gulf of Mexico. Initially, Starship's upper stage was planned to spend about ten hours in orbit and complete six orbits of the Earth. However, after one of its six engines failed, SpaceX shortened the flight to three hours. Subscribe, this is BAZA:

One of the six engines on the Starship spacecraft failed during Elon Musk's SpaceX's first full orbital flight. Because of the malfunction, the company decided to shorten the test: instead of the planned 10 hours and six orbits of the Earth, Starship will spend about three hours in orbit. After that, the ship will be deorbited over the northern Pacific Ocean for a soft splashdown.

This is the 14th test flight of the spacecraft. “The upcoming flight is planned to be the first to put Starship into orbit around Earth. Entering orbit will allow SpaceX to move on to the next phase of Starship development — creating a fully reusable rocket that can be quickly reused,” the company said in a statement. The flight will take place at an altitude of about 275 km above Earth. In approximately 10 hours of flight, the spacecraft will complete about six orbits around the planet.
