SpaceX's Starship, the rocket vehicle central to Elon Musk's multiplanetary ambitions, is set for its ninth uncrewed test launch on Tuesday, following regulatory approval and past explosive failures.
The spacecraft, comprising a Starship cruise vessel and a SpaceX Super Heavy rocket booster, will lift off from Starbase in Texas, a launch greenlit after federal regulators concluded their investigation into previous mishaps.
Musk anticipates Starship as pivotal in launching humans to Mars and eventually replacing the Falcon 9 rocket, aligning with NASA's lunar plans and highlighting SpaceX's dominance in the satellite market.
