SpaceX Aims for March Launch of Starship's Third Test Flight

Pending FAA approval, the upcoming test seeks to overcome previous failures and advance long-term lunar and Martian missions.

SpaceX is preparing for the third test flight of its Starship rocket, aiming for a launch in early March, pending FAA approval.
The Starship rocket, the most powerful ever built, has undergone two previous test flights, both of which ended in explosions.
SpaceX's long-term goal for Starship includes carrying crew and cargo to the Moon and Mars, with a moon landing planned for September 2026.
Elon Musk has engaged with celebrities on social media, sharing updates on the Starship's progress and advising patience for future flights.
The FAA is currently investigating the second test flight, and SpaceX awaits a launch permit for the upcoming test.
