SpaceX Gears Up for Sixth Starship Launch on Nov 18

SpaceX gears up for its sixth Starship test flight on November 18, 2024, from Starbase, South Texas. The 165-foot Starship, featuring a cheeky pixelated banana design, aims to demonstrate booster return and Raptor engine relight in space. The mission includes thermal protection experiments and a daylight splashdown in the Indian Ocean for prime selfies. Approved by the FAA, this flight marks the final chapter for the current Starship model before the upgraded V2 ships take over. SpaceX shares launch pad photos highlighting progress. Buckle up for a zesty ride!
