DeleteMe International plans: https://international.joindeleteme.com/ This week we've just watched Starship head out for static fire, but stop just at one engine before going for the full six. So what's holding Starship back? We are waiting to find out, but we are also taking a deep dive into what really happened during Starship Flight 12's hot staging, and analysing the engine ignition sequence that may explain why the Super Heavy booster flipped in the wrong direction. We also catch up on Starship Flight 13 as Ship 40 completes its first static fire, look at the latest SpaceX testing at Starbase, and discuss what changes may be coming before the next Starship launch. Elsewhere, Falcon 9 launches the first Starfall demonstration mission along with two Starlink flights, Rocket Lab begins its fascinating Victus Haze orbital chase, NASA prepares an ambitious attempt to save the Swift Space Telescope before re-entry, and Blue Origin reveals impressive Blue Moon lunar lander hardware while continuing New Glenn recovery and rebuild efforts.
