Photo of the Day: Two Starships in Texas...
Elon Musk / SpaceX
Just thought I'd share this amazing pic of Starships Serial No. 10 (or SN10, foreground) and SN9 (background) standing proudly at the SpaceX launch facility in Boca Chica Beach, Texas, as of today. SN9 was supposed to conduct its long-awaited 10-kilometer (6.2-mile) hop from Pad B yesterday or today, but the Federal Aviation Administration is currently keeping things on hold (see below; click to enlarge) to make sure that people living in the surrounding area will be safe if SN9's exciting flight ends on a fiery note just like that of its predecessor last month. The wait will totally be worth it should SN9 stick the landing this time around! And if it doesn't, well, that's why SN10 is now standing vigilantly at Pad A. Have a nice weekend!
