SpaceX is gearing up for the third flight of its Starship, showcasing significant progress with the full assembly of Booster 10 and Ship 28 at the launch pad. This pivotal move sets the stage for an upcoming Wet Dress Rehearsal (WDR), a critical step where the rocket is fully loaded with propellants and goes through a launch countdown without igniting the engines. The efficient assembly of the full stack in under 56 hours highlights SpaceX's readiness to increase Starship's launch frequency. Adjustments, including the addition of slosh baffles to the LOX tank, reflect ongoing enhancements for operational reliability. With road closures scheduled for comprehensive testing, and ongoing collaboration with the FAA to clear previous mishap investigations, SpaceX is on the brink of advancing Starship's flight capabilities. Future flights are already on the horizon, with preparations for Boosters 11 and 12, and Ships 29 and 30, indicating a bustling schedule ahead. This phase is crucial as SpaceX aims to solidify Starship's role in space exploration, inching closer to operational status with each test and modification.
