SpaceX Starship's first orbital flight test on track after successful launch rehearsal

SpaceX completed a wet-dress rehearsal for Starship, verifying fuel lines, software, and ground-communications systems through a full countdown sequence without liftoff. The vehicle is now scheduled for its 14th test flight on September 28, with a 75-minute launch window opening at 8:15 AM ET. The flight will carry 26 Starlink V3 satellites, orbit Earth six times in ten hours, then re-enter and crash into the ocean.
