SpaceX is getting closer to Starship Flight 12. This week, Booster 19 finally arrived at Pad 2, marking a major milestone as SpaceX prepares the new launch complex for its first Super Heavy testing campaign. Meanwhile at Massey’s test site, Ship 39 completed multiple cryogenic proof tests using a brand-new testing configuration designed to simulate aerodynamic loads and catch forces during Starship recovery. We also take a look at the rapid progress of Ship 40 in Mega Bay 2, new TPS experiments at Starfactory, and another incredibly busy week of Raptor 3 engine testing at McGregor. Plus, we check in on Pad 2 development, Pad 1 upgrades, and continued progress on Starship launch infrastructure in Florida, including new tower modules rolling out for the Space Coast launch complex. From Starbase, Texas to Florida’s Space Coast, here’s everything you need to know about the latest Starship developments. ⚡ Become a member of NASASpaceflight's channel for exclusive discord access, fast turnaround clips, and other exclusive benefits.
