SpaceX has successfully launched its Starship rocket on a massive trial that showcases Elon Musk's desire to transport people to Mars.
On Thursday morning, the largest rocket in the world was launched for its third test flight. The lift-off happened at SpaceX's Starbase facility in Boca Chica, Texas.
The rocket that was launched two times before, but had nobody on it, was not successful in making it from Texas to Hawaii. Both times, it exploded while in the sky above. The next time they try to send the rocket, they will take a different path. Rather than trying to reach Hawaii, the rocket will aim to land in the Indian Ocean instead.
SpaceX stated prior to the Starship launch that every flight test is still only a trial. These tests are not being done in a controlled environment or on a model, but rather using real flight equipment in realistic conditions in order to gain as much knowledge as possible.

The Starship craft is completing tasks as it travels in orbit around the planet. Its most recent accomplishment is the unveiling of a lid, which will eventually be utilized to transport satellites into space.
We have to wait for approximately 40 more minutes until we witness any significant activity from the rocket. The timeframe for the rocket to come back into the Earth's atmosphere is set at T+50 minutes.

The Starship has triumphantly detached from the Super Heavy booster, which was the phase when the initial test flight was not successful.
The next phase is going as per the planned flight course and has progressed more compared to the previous try that didn't succeed soon after the phase division.
According to SpaceX, the third test has been an exceptionally successful one up until now.

Live Starship Launch: 10 Minutes To Go
With the passage of 10 minutes on the clock, we may finally be reaching the last part of our countdown.
The current weather conditions are more favorable compared to an hour ago when the Starship launch was supposed to happen. This increase in light could provide us with a clearer view of the launch, but there is a potential obstacle with the fog impeding our view.
Talking about perspectives, the camera placed on the summit of Starship displays the enormous height of the structure. It has a height of 120 meters, which is 24 meters higher than the tower of Big Ben in London.
