Starship SN6, equipped with a single Raptor engine (SN29), will attempt a hop at SpaceX’s development and launch site at Boca Chica, Texas. The test article will rise to a maximum altitude of about 150 meters and translate a similar distance downrange to the landing pad. The flight should last approximately one minute and follow a trajectory very similar to Starhopper’s 150 meter hop in August of 2019, and to the more recent SN5 150m hop. The Raptor engine is offset slightly from the vehicle’s vertical axis, so some unusual motion is to be expected as SN6 lifts off, reorients the engine beneath the vehicle’s center of mass, and lands. SN6 has six legs stowed inside the skirt which will be deployed in flight for landing. The exact launch time may not be known until just a few minutes before launch, and will be preceded by a local siren about 10 minutes ahead of time.
This attempt was scrubbed.
