SpaceX Starship Flight 6 Plans to Launch in Six Days | NextBigFuture.com
SpaceX Starship flight 6 plans to launch in 6 days on November 18, 2024.
They will be performing a similar flight to flight 5 but have made changes to the heat shield and other systems.
The booster should return for a catch but if anything is going wrong it will be aborted.
The upper stage will try to a raptor in space relight while in near orbit. De-orbiting future Starships will require de-orbit engine butines. This means if flight 7 or flight 8 goes to full orbit then the engines will safely restart for a controlled de-orbit.
The launch will be in the afternoon instead of early morning. This means the landing, catches and ocean splashdown will be in bright daylight. The views and images of these events will be very clear and amazing.
The next flight 7 will be a new block 2 Starship. They will likely scrap the already completed Starship 32. Starship 33 will be the first block 2 Starship to fly.
