SpaceX officially announced NEW LAUNCH DATE for 9th Starship flight after S35 Problem...
It seemed like we would have to wait longer for SpaceX to launch Starship for the ninth time. But wait! That was just the standard from a few days ago - now we're facing a completely different situation. Starship version 2 will be taking off sooner than ever, right in mid-May.
Of course, this is not an unfounded statement but has been confirmed through reliable sources.
So, let’s find out on today’s episode of Alpha Tech:
SpaceX officially announced NEW LAUNCH DATE for 9th Starship flight after S35 Problem...
As we know, SpaceX recently conducted a high-stress static fire test of the next Starship Version 2 vehicle, known as Ship 35, in preparation for the important upcoming Starship Flight 9.
Originally, had the test gone smoothly, SpaceX would have been ready to launch within the week. However, the results revealed an issue with one of the Raptor engines, prompting the immediate return of Ship 35 to the production site on May 2.

At that moment, many speculated about deeper problems with the Raptor 2 engines, especially the Raptor Vacuum variant, and predicted that SpaceX would need a significant amount of time to identify and resolve the issue.
Surprisingly, and contrary to expectations, SpaceX acted swiftly and replaced the problematic engine almost immediately. This replacement was spotted on the evening of May 3 at Starbase, signaling the team’s decisive commitment to getting Ship 35 back on track.
