SpaceX is preparing to conduct the first full duration static fire test on its “full thrust” Falcon 9 first stage. The milestone – set to be conducted at its McGregor test facility in Texas within the next few days – will be a major step forward in the flow towards the company’s Return To Flight mission tasked with launching a group of Orbcomm-2 satellites, set to take place in late November/early December at the earliest.
