SpaceX's Starship launch date pushed back to later in April, says Elon Musk.
TL;DR Summary
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk announced that the launch of the Starship Super Heavy rocket test will likely take place later this month, rather than this week. The rocket is scheduled to lift off from SpaceX's Starbase facilities at Boca Chica in South Texas, and is the first launch of the company's fully stacked 394-foot (120-meter) tall Starship rocket system. SpaceX must still get a launch license from the FAA for what is expected to be its first orbital flight test from Boca Chica.
