Booster 20’s landing burn was something…. It started with 10/13 engines lighting for the burn and 5 engines remaining lit until the eventual splash into the Gulf. I hope more information comes out soon after launch!

Booster 20 appears to have failed to light some of its engines during the landing burn 😔 It will be interesting to hear whether or not the unhealthy engines were detected after boost back and if it would have been cleared to return to the launch site. I don't think we have seen how a situation like this would be handled.

After flying to a peak altitude of ~90km, traveling more than 60 km downrange from Starbase, and completing its boostback burn and coast, Super Heavy ignited its landing burn less than 40 meters away from the preflight target. The Raptor engines and booster guidance system precisely maneuvered the vehicle through the highest wind speeds yet for a Super Heavy landing burn. Upgrades to the chopstick controls enabled them to start wider and move earlier for catch, expanding the envelope for booster landing burn trajectories.

SPACEX HITS 560TH BOOSTER LANDING WITH FLAWLESS FINAL BURN SpaceX just nailed their 560th Falcon booster landing, with the first stage touching down perfectly after the mission. The final burn segment was textbook smooth, slowing the booster just right for a gentle pad return without drama. Source: SpaceX

The hot-staging into boost-back during Flight 12 was pretty chaotic so I decided to try to simplify what occurred by looking at the visuals and the telemetry. This is my take and the engines that failed to light or shutoff could be wrong. I am open to corrections. Booster 19 had failed to light some of its engines at the start of its boost-back before experiencing an energetic event in the inner engines that knocked out surrounding engines. E5 or E6 may be the culprit as E7 eventually relit during the landing burn.

Love seeing New Glenn's seven BE-4 engines come alive! Congratulations to Team Blue on today's hotfire. We extended the hotfire duration this time to simulate the landing burn sequence by shutting down the non-gimballed engines after ramping down to 50 percent thrust, then shutting down the outboard gimballed engines while ramping the center engine to 80 percent thrust. This helps us understand fluid interactions between active and inactive engine feedlines during landing. Next, we will mate NASA's ESCAPADE payload to the launch vehicle and enter final preparations for launch.

🇺🇸 STARSHIP FLIGHT 11: SHIP 38 HEADS TO THE PAD Elon confirmed launch is set for Monday ~5PM CT, building on the success of Flight 10 with high-stakes upgrades and aggressive testing. The booster, reused from Flight 8, will launch with 24 flight-proven Raptor engines and test a new 13-5-3 landing burn configuration, ending with a hover and drop into the Gulf of Mexico - no catch attempt. Starship will perform in-space tests, including a Raptor engine relight and deployment of 8 Starlink simulators. These are suborbital and will burn up on reentry. Reentry is designed to push limits: heat shield tiles have been deliberately removed in vulnerable areas to stress-test the system. The ship will attempt a final dynamic banking maneuver, testing the subsonic return profile for future landings at Starbase, with splashdown set for the Indian Ocean.

How can replacing four engines decide the fate of the world's most powerful rocket? 🚀 After Starship Flight 13's last-second abort, SpaceX is swapping out four Raptor engines on Booster 20 before trying again. With the first functional Starlink V3 deployment and multiple critical flight tests on the line, this launch could mark a major milestone on the road to full reusability. Here's why Flight 13 matters. #Starship #Flight13 #StarshipFlight13 #SpaceX #ElonMusk #Starbase #StarshipV3 #Raptor #Booster20 #Ship40 #StarlinkV3 #RocketLaunch

STARSHIP FLIGHT 9: BOOSTER REUSE, ENGINE RELIGHT & A GLOBAL SPLASHDOWN SpaceX is back with Flight 9, aiming to fly Ship 35 past SECO and splash it down in the Indian Ocean after key in-flight tests. Booster 14 will launch for the second time - marking the first ever Super Heavy reflight. No catch this time; it’ll test a high-drag splashdown in the Gulf with a brand-new controlled flip and engine-out landing burn experiment. Flight objectives include Starlink sim deployment, in-flight Raptor relight, and heat shield durability tests with missing tiles. Launch is set for today at 6:30 PM CDT from Starbase, Texas.

SpaceX fails again — Musk's Starship explodes and falls apart Approximately 10 minutes after launch and shortly after detaching from its booster, the spacecraft began spinning chaotically, emitting sparks before communications were lost. However, the Super Heavy booster landed safely. SpaceX reported that the explosion occurred after several engines were lost. "As always, success comes from the knowledge gained," the company stated.

I thought I'd try to illustrate how Starship 39 made up for a less than optimal sub-orbital insertion and lower-than-planned perigee by using aerodynamics during re-entry to extend its downrange flight profile and make an on-target landing in the Indian Ocean. The ship used a combination of Angle-of Attack (AOA) changes, the flaps and body of the ship as lifting surfaces to manage the total drag forces to "fly" a longer distance, all while managing plasma heating & velocity decreases to prepare for the landing burn. SpaceX had to do this because of the loss of the one RVAC at about the 3:03 mark just after hot staging, resulting in the remaining 5 engines to compensate and burn longer. Impressive example of the Avionics, Navigation & Control used with Starship! Check out this short video clip with illustrations & information along the way! I hope you find this informative!

A great looking static fire test from SpaceX with Super Heavy Booster 9! There was confirmation of a full duration burn! Awaiting to see if indeed all 33 engines functioned properly 🤞 if all looked good, we’re getting closer to the next launch potentially in a week or two! 🙌

SpaceX timeline called for 11-seconds of entry burn (short, but for RTLS), but this Booster only burned for about three seconds. Then fought a fair bit during the return but still managed to land! Secondary to the smooth crew launch on Dragon, which all went well, but it is fascinating if the booster had an entry burn issue, but STILL got back to the landing site OK! Or SpaceX changed something and didn't update their timeline. Let's see if we get an official answer during post-launch presser.
