SpaceX's Starship is gearing up for its sixth test flight, with significant upgrades in response to a near-miss incident during its previous flight.
The enhancements include more robust booster propulsion systems and structural strength, along with modified software controls.
The launch is set for 4:00pm Texas time, aiming for a sub-orbital trajectory and a splashdown in the Indian Ocean, testing new thermal protection materials and a single Raptor engine's in-space burn capability.
