SpaceX launch: Elon Musk to attempt major Starship milestone

Starship tests include a static fire and other ground checkouts.

There will then be another static fire test before an attempt to hit an altitude of 60,000ft (11 miles) before safely returning to the ground in a controlled landing.

SpaceX is technically a little behind schedule when it comes to Starship development, relative to Musk’s most optimistic estimates.

However, the SpaceX chief is well-known for his sanguine outlook with regards to time-frames for the cutting-edge reusable rocket company.
