SpaceX's Starship V3—still a work in progress—mostly successful on first flight
SMRTR summary
SpaceX's upgraded Starship V3 completed its first test flight Friday, reaching 121 miles altitude, successfully deploying 20 satellite mockups, and splashing down in the Indian Ocean. Two engine failures prevented a planned engine restart and a controlled booster landing, meaning a full orbital flight remains out of reach for now.
