Elon Musk, the popular CEO of SpaceX, shared insights about the company’s next Starship mission in a recent post on the X platform. Musk stated that he expects this test mission to take place within the next three weeks. However, it’s intriguing why the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has not yet granted official approval for this mission.
Elon Musk is planning a new Starship flight!
The delay in obtaining official approval is attributed to the explosion during a Starship flight at SpaceX’s Texas facilities last November. Despite the explosion, the company claimed that the mission was successful in achieving its objectives.
SpaceX officials stated that they are awaiting the completion of the FAA’s review process before granting permission for the next flight. This mission aims to reach the Moon with a comprehensive team and resources, with even the possibility of reaching Mars being suggested. SpaceX has completed many necessary preparations for this operation and hopes for success.
The giant flight rocket, weighing a whopping 7.7 tons, claimed the title of the world’s most powerful rocket when it was first used 10 months ago. However, the explosions during the first two flights indicated that the rocket was not fully ready. While it remains uncertain what the next Starship mission will bring under Elon Musk’s leadership, space enthusiasts are already eagerly anticipating it.
