It finally did the thing!
For the first time, SpaceX has managed to lift its gargantuan Super Heavy rocket booster, the world's most powerful rocket, onto the launch pad using its colossal "chopsticks"-wielding launch tower.

It's a truly impressive feat of engineering and one that brings SpaceX's inaugural Starship orbital test flight ever closer.
Remember no rocket with this many engines has ever successfully launched.
Let’s find out everything in today’s episode of SpaceX Fans:

It has been a long time since SpaceX launched a rocket from South Texas. After a flurry of seven Starship prototype test flights from August 2020 through May 2021, the company has not flown from its launch pads near Boca Chica Beach.

There are good reasons for this hiatus and good reasons to believe it may soon change as SpaceX makes progress toward an orbital launch attempt from South Texas later this year.

The seven launches of a full-scale Starship prototype gradually pushed the envelope, beginning with two 150-meter hops before moving to flights as high as 12.5 km to demonstrate a belly-flop maneuver that will be needed during the vehicle's return through Earth's atmosphere. The flight test program culminated with a successful soft-landing of Starship after a 10 km flight.

By that point, SpaceX had pushed its Starship prototype about as far as it could go. The vehicle did not have the capability to reach orbit on its own, so SpaceX had to complete development of the "Super Heavy" first stage of the launch system.
Because this would be the largest, and most powerful rocket ever built, it would require work to be completed on a number of fronts—from rockets to ground systems to paperwork. And so, the launch pads at Boca Chica have been quiet for more than a year.
