SpaceX is now aiming for this Thursday, April 20, to launch its Starship Super Heavy rocket on its maiden voyage, known as the Starship Flight Test, after a frozen valve on Booster 7 prevented it from pressurizing for flight earlier today. This caused the launch to be scrubbed several minutes before lift-off.

SpaceX continued with the countdown, treating this morning's remaining activities as a wet dress rehearsal before the clock stopped ticking at L-minus 10 seconds. The exact time of liftoff for April 20 has not yet been revealed.

Stay tuned!

    While setbacks are always disappointing, it's important to remember that they are a natural part of the process of innovation and discovery. It takes a lot of trial and error to achieve breakthroughs, and even the most experienced and talented teams encounter obstacles along the way.

    We are confident that the SpaceX team will continue to learn and adapt as they work towards their goals, and We look forward to seeing what they achieve in the future. Thank you again for sharing this update.
