SpaceX Prepares for Starship Flight 6 with Nov. 19 Launch and Road Closures

SpaceX has successfully stacked its sixth Starship megarocket at the Starbase site in South Texas, preparing for a test flight scheduled for November 19, 2024. The fully assembled rocket, comprising the Super Heavy booster and the Ship upper-stage spacecraft, stands nearly 400 feet tall, making it the largest and most powerful rocket ever built. This mission is part of SpaceX's efforts to develop a fully reusable spacecraft to support lunar and Martian exploration, with NASA already selecting Starship for its Artemis lunar missions.
