Starship SN6 has conducted a 150-meter hop test on Thursday, just a few weeks after SN5 completed the first Starship prototype launch.
SN6’s test was a near-mirror of SN5’s short flight, with both prototypes aiming to refine SpaceX’s launch and landing operations. Meanwhile, additional Starships continue to evolve, along with preparations for the Super Heavy booster, which – according to Chief Designer Elon Musk – could conduct an initial test hop by October.
