SpaceX Prepares for Sixth Starship Test Flight on November 18

The upcoming mission aims to further test reusability and system upgrades following the success of the previous flight.

SpaceX's sixth Starship test flight is scheduled for November 18, with a 30-minute launch window starting at 5 p.m. Eastern Time.
The flight will attempt to catch the Super Heavy booster again using the launch tower's chopstick arms, a key step towards full reusability.
Upgrades for this test include enhanced redundancy in booster propulsion systems and modifications to the thermal protection materials on Starship.
The mission will test the relighting of a Raptor engine in space, demonstrating the capability for future deorbit burns.
This will be the last flight of the current Starship version, with future models featuring significant design upgrades.
