SpaceX Boca Chica: SN9 Ready For Test Flight - Super Heavy Booster Grows Taller

With Starship SN9's flight termination system installed, it is now ready to fly as early as Monday! SN9 will perform a similar flight to SN8, hopefully sticking the landing this time. Also Super Heavy Booster BN1 stacking continues in the High Bay.
