SpaceX launched the first Starship V3 on Flight 12 today from Starbase. The vehicle successfully deployed 20 Starlink simulators and 2 real modified Starlink satellites on a suborbital trajectory.
This represents a solid step forward in testing the upgraded design and Starlink deployment capabilities.

You'll Thank Me Later! The SpaceX Starhip transport barge has just been fitted with a brand new roof enclosure, and looks just about fully finished. This barge should soon transport some of the first Superheavy boosters and ships from Starbase to the Cape!
