"SpaceX Prepares for Third Starship Test Flight with Added Tests"

SpaceX is gearing up for the third test flight of its Starship megarocket, with a launch potentially scheduled for March 14. This mission will feature more ambitious objectives, including opening and closing Starship's payload door, a propellant transfer demonstration, and the first-ever re-light of a Raptor engine in space. The company aims to test new techniques like in-space engine burns while maximizing public safety, with the spacecraft targeted to splash down in the Indian Ocean. The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration has completed its investigation into the previous Starship flight, but a license for the upcoming launch has not been awarded yet.
