SpaceX has postponed the thirteenth flight test of its Starship rocket to Friday, July 24, citing unfavorable weather conditions.
A primary goal of the upcoming test is to capture clear ground imagery of Starship’s heatshield as the vehicle ascends through higher dynamic pressure. This level of visibility was not possible under current weather, making the rescheduling essential for technical assessment.
SpaceX previously scheduled the thirteenth Starship test flight for July 16, aiming to advance its deep space launch technology, according to a recent announcement. The company continues to emphasize engineering milestones, including the construction and testing of its 1,000th Merlin 1D engine for Falcon first stages, as reported in earlier updates. These efforts align with ongoing improvements in vehicle performance and reliability.
