SpaceX has moved the Super Heavy Rocket booster and has added another tower on its segment in Boca Chica, with Elon Musk showing the progress of the company s ventures. The highly anticipated Full Stack Flight will soon come and its scheduled date will be this July, but the space company has not said anything concrete for now.
Elon Musk is lighting up Twitter with a lot of Super Heavy tweets and mentions at the moment, and this only means one thing: SpaceX is working on the full stack flight to soon happen.

Elon Musk teased another feature of his popular spacecraft, and it is the Rapid Reusability Rockets, saying that Falcon 9 has less maintenance work and cost with every use, with Starship and Super Heavy at zero. This means that SpaceX is not spending as much funds or resources on its reusable rockets, but saves more on its use.
One might think that SpaceX is spending too much money in keeping or maintaining a rocket like Falcon 9, which already passed its tenth flight milestone and believed lifespan. However, that is where people are wrong, especially as the CEO reveals how much work it needs to keep it up and running.

SpaceX s Starship Serial Number 15 rocket has successfully launched and landed, making it the first and only prototype to survive a high-altitude flight test.
Following a day of delay and anticipation, the Elon Musk-owned company launched SN15 at 6:24 p.m. ET from its Boca Chica, Texas testing facility.
SN15 s giant Raptor engines released streams of white smoke from the launch pad and propelled the rocket into the air.
The prototype soared to a height of six miles in the atmosphere, hovered for a brief moment, and then performed the notorious sideways flip, nicknamed the belly flop by Musk.
With the methane fuel they were carrying, this was not unprecedented, according to SpaceX engineer and livestream announcer John Insprucker. However, the fires were quickly extinguished.
