19 Jul, 2021
Elon Musk responding to a Twitter query about the first test of the rocket booster built to propel the Mars-bound Starship spacecraft into orbit, said that it would occur early next week.
The SpaceX CEO wrote, “Probably Monday” in answer to a tweet from space blogger and YouTuber Everyday Astronaut.
The static fire test will be a huge step forward for SpaceX’s efforts to build a rocket that can transport crew and cargo around the Solar System.
Lending credibility to this timeline are notices for closure of roads surrounding SpaceX’s Starbase facility in Boca Chica, Texas, for Monday between 12pm and 10pm. Backup dates for the testing are also set for Tuesday and Wednesday.

Elon Musk believes that the Earth is experiencing a Population Collapse and that humans need to pro-create more and bring those people to Mars via SpaceX to save civilization. The company is known to be creating its Starship program that is intended to be going towards the Red Planet to bring humans and enable space tourism, but now it has a higher purpose.
SpaceX is not only here to show off Musk s brilliant space concepts and visions but to also save humanity from the impending doom of extinction. That would be achieved through the combination of Starship and Super Heavy Booster s full-stack once it is operational and clear to bring humans to Mars.
