SpaceX’s next Starship test flight is shaping up to be more than another attempt to push the world’s biggest rocket through its paces. Starship Flight 14 could combine three significant milestones in one mission: an attempt at orbital insertion, the first deployment of next-generation Starlink V3 satellites and a new way of examining the spacecraft’s heatshield during reentry.
The launch is scheduled for later today, with the window opening at 5:45 pm IST and remaining open for 75 minutes. If the mission follows its planned trajectory, Starship will spend several hours in space before returning to Earth, while its Super Heavy booster attempts another controlled landing.
