Starship vehicles have been launched six times for flight tests over two years, resulting in four successes (66.67%), and two failures. Starship Block 1 has been launched six times between April 2023 to November 2024, with the ship being retired ahead of the seventh flight. [10] Block 1 boosters are expected to fly further into the future. [11]
Starship Flight 7 will be the seventh flight test of a SpaceX Starship launch vehicle. The prototype vehicles expected to be flown are Ship 33, the first Block 2 upper stage, and Booster 14, a Block 1 vehicle. An engine from B12, Raptor #314, will be reflown on Booster 14 after having previously supported Booster 12 during flight 5. [2]
Starship’s upper stage will fly the same suborbital trajectory as the previous flight test, with splashdown targeted in the Indian Ocean. Here’s a diagram of what it should look like: (SpaceX)
When stacked and fully fueled, Starship has a mass of approximately 5,000 t (11,000,000 lb), [c] a diameter of 9 m (30 ft) [15] and a height of 121.3 m (398 ft). [16] The rocket has been designed with the goal of being fully reusable to reduce launch costs; [17] it consists of the Super Heavy booster and the Starship upper stage [18] which are powered by Raptor and Raptor Vacuum engines.
