Read our privacy policy SpaceX has successfully performed the first ever static fire test of its Super Heavy Booster, which it hopes to use to send its Starship rocket to Mars. The next major phase of testing involves launching the Starship craft atop the Super Heavy Booster on a 90-minute flight that will take it from SpaceX’s Starbase facility in Boca Chica, Texas, to Hawaii. “Full duration firing of three Raptors on Super Heavy Booster,” SpaceX CEO Elon Musk tweeted following the test. “Depending on progress with Booster 4, we might try a 9 engine firing on Booster 3.” Starship’s first orbital flight was initially set to take place before July, however SpaceX’s ambitious testing schedule is at the mercy of external forces such as weather and regulatory obstacles.
