Starship's Final Test Before Mars? SpaceX Moves the Beast!

WooGlobe

SpaceX just rolled out its massive Starship spacecraft for testing — and it could be the final flight for this version of the rocket. Captured in stunning nighttime photos, the 171-foot-tall Starship was moved to the launch pad at SpaceX’s Starbase site in South Texas, held by the massive &quot;chopstick&quot; arms of the launch tower.  This will be Flight 11, the last mission for Starship Version 2. If all goes well, the next chapter begins — Version 3, a taller, more powerful rocket that Elon Musk says could launch toward Mars as early as next year.  Flight 10 was a full success, with both stages landing correctly and even deploying dummy Starlink satellites. After several failed attempts, SpaceX is once again pushing forward at full speed.

00:00SpaceX just took a giant step closer to Mars.

00:12This isn't just any starship.

00:14It's the 171-foot-tall spacecraft that's gearing up for its 11th test flight.

00:19And this flight could mark the end of an era.

00:22In stunning photos, the rocket was seen cradled by the launch tower's huge chopstick arms.

00:27Next up, engine tests and pressurization checks to get ready for liftoff.

00:31Flight 10 was a win.

00:33Both stages hit their splashdown zones.

00:35And Starship even deployed dummy satellites.

00:38That's a massive recovery after three failed flights in a row.

00:41But here's the twist.

00:43Flight 11 will be the final mission for this version of Starship.

00:47After that, SpaceX moves on to version 3, taller, more powerful, and possibly headed to Mars as early as next year.

00:54Elon Musk's dream of a Mars colony?

00:56This might be the rocket that makes it real.

00:57不是 a Mars colony?

00:58This might be the rocket that makes it real.

00:59We don't know anything about this or concern this course.

01:00Exactly.

01:02I am on my way.

01:04May Iсть it?

01:05I'm not worried what I was mad at.

01:06It must be still here today.

01:07I want to learn more data.

01:08I wanna step ahead of time.

01:09If I Kä газ count on it in the truth in兩個 happened to me.

01:10I'm happy.

01:11A space for all my life started to get some原因 in the next year.

01:12I'm sure I left a little outro taking my tracks, but it's not like me as it

01:13take any otheramı of my tracks.

01:14I'm happy to tap my dad else in the next year to the night.
