FAA Last week, SpaceX’s stars were cleared once again after the end of the previous flight review, which ended in an explosion, and the next test could begin soon with Tuesday. Space X is watching for the Starshop on May 27 Ninth flight testWith the opening of the launch window at 7:30 pm (Local Time for Texas Star Base 6:30 pm). For the first time in this launch, Space X will be reused by a super heavy booster. Earlier this year, the booster was flown to flight with the seventh flight test of the stars. Although the single -use parts have been replaced, Space X says it is reusing 29 of the booster’s 33 reptor engines.
As usual, the audience at home will be able to see by tuning in the current series, starting 30 minutes before launching. It will be available on Space X Website And in a broadcast on it X Profile
SpaceX conducted the eighth flight test of the stars in March, but the vehicle went on a few minutes after the launch. The Super Heavy Booster managed to return to the launch site after separation from the upper stage and was successfully caught with the tower’s “Chop Stick” arms, but the ship itself, several repetor engines closed, causing it to mess up and eventually blow itself.
Space x The matter says the matter was probably “due to hardware failure in one of the upper stage center raptor engines, which inadvertently resulted in the result of the property mixing and ignition.” Since then, some changes have been made to prevent it from being again. Space X said in a updated May 22 that “at the upper stage of the starchy, engines will get an additional pre -load on the key joints, a new nitrogen parajus system, and the improvement in the property drain system.”
For flight nine, the super heavy booster will not return to the launch site, but instead will sprinkle in the sea. The Starship will try to deploy the upper stage eight -star link link dummy satellite, and SpaceX is otherwise looking for a flight that “many experiments focused on enabled the upper stage of the starchy to return to the launch site”.
