Space.... the final frontier!

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Some of the engines didn’t start, triggering an automatic launch abort.

Now offloading propellant.

Next launch attempt hopefully in a few days.

All systems are looking good, and weather is favorable for liftoff. Propellant load is about to begin for Falcon 9’s launch of the @SemperCitiusSDA's third Tranche 1 data transport mission from California → https://t.co/d9zP1Zsccm

On track for Starship’s 13th flight test later today – the 90-minute launch window opens at 5:45 p.m. CT. Live coverage starts ~30 minutes before launch

Stacking Starship for Flight 13

[SpaceX @SpaceX]

The path to launch is filled with obstacles and success is only possible through the tireless efforts of many working together towards a common goal. “Critical Path” continues the ongoing Starship series, following SpaceX engineers through the final days before launch of the first Starship V3 and the challenges that come with development of the world’s most powerful and fully reusable rocket.

Starship’s thirteenth flight test is preparing to launch as early as Thursday, July 16 → https://t.co/Rp7VwBzpWx

Quite a sight to see the progress this team has made since May 28. Wreckage recovery from start to finish was completed in 9 days, and all debris has been cleared from Launch Complex 36. Huge shoutout to the team who have been working 7x24. We have started reconstruction and still plan to fly again this year. Will have more details on the new conop soon.

Look at that thing turn downrange like an ICBM

I've come to appreciate boring hotfires. Our BE-7 team recently completed a 2,500 second hotfire test at 10klbf on a development engine, setting the record for the longest-duration turbo pump-fed liquid rocket engine hotfire. This built on some of the most rigorous testing in the history of propulsion, with the previous record set by the RS-25 engine that powered the Space Shuttle. They recorded two 2,017 second tests in 1988. It's not lost on us that we're following a path those engineers blazed, and we're grateful for it. Grab the popcorn and enjoy watching 41 minutes of hotfire goodness.

We are targeting NET 15 June to launch Mission 'Onward and Upward' during the available launch window opening at 8:00 pm UTC (10:00 pm CEST), subject to weather, safety, and range infrastructure.

We have regained some access to Launch Complex 36 and are actively investigating the hotfire anomaly. We will start clearing the pad soon and have a good rebuild plan in place. The booster and GS2s in the integration facility appear healthy from quick looks.

I literally got this as a push notification before going to bed only to find out this morning why it indeed was not good at all -_-
I guess "No, it's necessary" took its name to seriously🥲

[Eric Berger @SciGuySpace]

Wow. Not good at all.
