SpaceX chief Elon Musk said on Monday that the Starship rocket will make its 10th test flight in August. Musk made the announcement in a post on X, saying, “Starship launches again next month.” Additional details about a specific date have yet to be shared by Musk or SpaceX,

The Ship that just moved to the pad is the second SpaceX has prepped for Flight 10. The first one exploded on a test stand at Starbase on June 18 while gearing up for a static fire, a common prelaunch trial in which a rocket's engines are briefly ignited while the vehicle remains anchored to the ground.

SpaceX prepares to launch NASA's Crew-11 mission with four astronauts from the U.S., Japan and Russia heading to the International Space Station.
