SpaceX Starship Landing Goes Viral After Flight 12 Test

🚨 SpaceX launched Starship Flight 12 from Starbase, Texas — the most ambitious test of the program yet.

The mission marked the first flight of the Starship and Super Heavy V3 vehicles, powered by Raptor 3 engines. Super Heavy ignited all 33 engines at liftoff, though one shut down during ascent. The booster attempted a landing burn before a hard splashdown in the Gulf of America. Meanwhile, Starship successfully deployed all 20 Starlink simulators and two modified Starlink satellites, before executing a landing flip, landing burn, and splashdown on two Raptor engines in the Indian Ocean.

The stakes couldn't be higher. NASA is counting on Starship to carry Artemis 4 astronauts to the lunar surface in 2028. The FAA has since required a SpaceX-led mishap investigation before any future Starship launches can resume, signaling that engineers still have work ahead.

Flight 12 pushed the boundaries of what's possible in commercial spaceflight. What will it take for Starship to be ready for a crewed lunar mission? 👇
