SpaceX has cleared the final hurdle for launching its new giant Starship from Texas as early as next week on a first test flight.
The Federal Aviation Administration issued the long-awaited license on Friday. SpaceX announced that Starship — the world’s biggest and most powerful rocket — could soar as soon as Monday.
It will be the first launch attempt of a full-size Starship, made of shiny stainless steel and powered by methane-fueled engines. "We carefully analyzed the public safety risks during every stage of the mission and required SpaceX to mitigate those risks," the FAA added.
