Another Raptor previously installed on Booster 20 is at SpaceX's McGregor test site. This is the third we've seen so far, indicating that more than two have been removed. This engine was also part of Booster 19's 10-engine complement back in March. nsf.live/mcgregor


Now targeting to launch Starship’s thirteenth flight test as early as Thursday, July 23 → spacex.com/launches/stars…

Step by step from hangar to launch pad: the RFA ONE launcher is now fully integrated, tested and ready for rollout. Stay tuned.



If Starship launches tomorrow, this will be the fastest ever Stack-to-Launch turnaround to date - demonstrating @SpaceX’s eagerness to achieve the holy grail of rocketry: a fully and rapidly reusable launch vehicle. The record was previously held by Ship 25, which was stacked onto Booster 9 approximately 22 hours before Flight 2.

TPS looking super on Ship 40, escorted by cybertrucks and public! The public can literally walk with a rocket heading for launch in under 24 hours. I hope that doesn't change going forward.
