TL;DR

SpaceX has rolled out its latest Starship upper-stage prototype, Ship 25, to a suborbital pad at its Starbase site in South Texas for a static fire test of its six Raptor engines. The company plans to conduct another full-stack Starship test flight, which will involve the Booster 9 Super Heavy vehicle. Ship 25 is expected to be the upper stage on that mission, though SpaceX has not yet confirmed this.
