According to SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, the aerospace company could try to launch its latest Starship rocket prototype more than nine miles into the sky as early as Wednesday.
Starship SN8 (Serial Number 8), a 165-foot tall stainless steel vehicle, is part of a series of prototypes built in the pursuit of developing an interplanetary transportation system designed to take humans and cargo to the Moon and Mars. It looks more like a rocket ship than previous versions that did not have a nose cone attached to the top or wing-like canards on the side.
