SpaceX's Starship has tougher engines
The new Starship comes with tougher engines, bigger fuel tanks, and redesigned steering fins.
For this mission, the booster will break off after launch and splash down in the ocean, while the spacecraft itself will test engine restarts in space and a controlled ocean landing.
It's an uncrewed flight but super important for SpaceX's plans to go to the Moon, Mars, and launch tons of satellites.
SpaceX is streaming the launch on its website and X, formerly Twitter, but keep an eye out: weather or last-minute checks could shift things again.
This flight is a big step toward future missions to the Moon and Mars.
