The upcoming ninth test flight of the Sparsip SpaceX shipping system will be detailed in a detailed broadcast at 4K resolution, confirmed by Ilon Musk. The flight window for Starship Flight 9 was determined from May 13 to 23 and the flight was planned on May 19-20, while the real day was May 20.
The flight of Starship's upper phase, train 35 and super heavy accelerator will participate in the flight. Previous tests showed a successful landing of the lower phase, but faced issues such as vibration and fuel leaks.
The flight was planned for a previous term, but was postponed until May 20 due to problems with new steps, exploding in previous tests. Despite the failures, SpaceX continued the tests and intended to eliminate problems in the upcoming flight, and this was confirmed not only by Musk, but also by coastal protection forces.
