SpaceX’s Starhopper test vehicle – after several days of delays while waiting for Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approval – successfully carried out its 150 meter test flight on Tuesday afternoon from Boca Chica, Texas. Monday’s attempt was scrubbed at T-0 due to an issue related to the ignitor system on the SN6 Raptor, moving the next attempt to Tuesday which was successful.
