SpaceX adjusts Starship Flight 13 test launch target date once again

SpaceX is targeting July 23 for its 13th Starship test flight after multiple delays, including a scrubbed attempt on July 16 when Raptor engines failed to ignite, forcing the replacement of two engines. Flight 13 will attempt to deploy 20 operational Starlink V3 satellites, test engine reliability in space, and demonstrate improved booster control — key milestones toward making Starship fully reusable for crewed missions and NASA's Artemis program.
