SpaceX sets the date for the next Starship start. Here you can find out how to be observed.

The SpaceX starship is planned for its eighth flight test this week after the plans for a start on Monday – the first start since the explosive attempt in January.

The spacecraft manufacturer did not explain why the start of Monday was switched off. The anticipation was built when the countdown reached the 40-second mark before the rocket start was set. SpaceX simply wrote on X last night: “Stand up today's flight test test. The Starship team is investigating the next best available opportunity to fly.”

CNN reported that SpaceX stacked the Starship rocket on the Super Heavy Booster on Monday morning, a meeting time later than what is common in the space industry. Dan Huot von SpaceX also found that SpaceX did not hold the vehicle sample.

Now SpaceX has set when the test can take place and from March 5 at 5:30 p.m. CT for the next attempt, which, if it is successful, Boca Chica, Texas, in the Indian Ocean of Boca Chica, Texas, Starship can be seen.

As usual, SpaceX will organize a live webcast of the event, which can be found on the SpaceX website and on the X-CEO Elon Musks X. SPACEX employees can expect spectators to offer a play-by-play from the start and a carefree comment such as an explanation of the recent collector's piece from Starships.

In the meantime, the activities of South Texans have shared the activities of SpaceX a security guide for the residents in order to prepare for “a dangerous SpaceX rocket start”. The tips include documenting the basis of your house before the start, since tests can lead to structural damage, personal protective equipment for protecting breathing health and observation of pets that can be afraid of the Sonic booms of the rocket.

“This was an empty building without an employee less than two years ago and in the past 20 months we have built a factory from scratch, we produced from zero kits to over 70,000 a week, and we have become over 1,000 from zero employees,” said SpaceX employee.
