FAQ

  1. IFT-9 (B14/S35[?]) No date or timelines communicated yet. Booster 14 confirmed for Flight 9, with 29 of 33 engines being flight proven. Ship not yet confirmed.
  2. IFT-8 (B15/S34) Launch completed on March 6th 2025. Booster (B15) was successfully caught but the Ship (S34) experienced engine losses and loss of attitude control about 30 seconds before planned engines cutoff, later it exploded. Re-streamed video of SpaceX's live stream. SpaceX summarized the launch on their web site. More details in the /r/SpaceX Launch Thread.
  3. IFT-7 (B14/S33) Launch completed on 16 January 2025. Booster caught successfully, but "Starship experienced a rapid unscheduled disassembly during its ascent burn." Its debris field was seen reentering over Turks and Caicos. SpaceX published a root cause analysis in its IFT-7 report on 24 February, identifying the source as an oxygen leak in the "attic," an unpressurized area between the LOX tank and the aft heatshield, caused by harmonic vibration.
  4. IFT-6 (B13/S31) Launch completed on 19 November 2024. Three of four stated launch objectives met: Raptor restart in vacuum, successful Starship reentry with steeper angle of attack, and daylight Starship water landing. Booster soft landed in Gulf after catch called off during descent - a SpaceX update stated that "automated health checks of critical hardware on the launch and catch tower triggered an abort of the catch attempt".
  5. Goals for 2025 Reach orbit, deploy starlinks and recover both stages
  6. Currently approved maximum launches 10 between 07.03.2024 and 06.03.2025: A maximum of five overpressure events from Starship intact impact and up to a total of five reentry debris or soft water landings in the Indian Ocean within a year of NMFS provided concurrence published on March 7, 2024

S35 Mega Bay 2 Ongoing work prior to the next big test, a static fire January 31st: Section AX:4 moved into MB2 - once welded in place this will complete the stacking process. February 7th: Fully stacked ship moved from the welding turntable to the middle work stand. March 10th: Rolled out to Massey's Test Site on the ship thrust simulator stand for cryo testing. March 11th: Full cryo test. March 12th: Two more full cryo tests. March 13th: Rolled back to the build site and moved into Mega Bay 2.
S36 Mega Bay 2 Fully stacked, remaining work ongoing March 11th: Section AX:4 moved into MB2 and stacked - this completes the stacking of S36 (stacking was started on January 30th).
S37 Mega Bay 2 Stacking ongoing February 26th: Nosecone stacked onto Payload Bay inside the Starfactory. March 12th: Pez Dispenser moved into MB2. March 15th: Nosecone+Payload Bay stack moved into MB2 (many missing tiles and no flaps). March 16th: Pez Dispenser installed inside Nosecone+Payload Bay stack. March 24th: Forward Dome FX:4 (still untiled) moved into MB2. April 1st: Ring stand for CX:3 seen removed from MB2, indicating that the common dome barrel has been stacked (it wasn't seen going in due to a few days of cam downtime). April 2nd: A2:3 moved into MB2 (no tiles as is now usual).
S38 Starfactory Nosecone+Payload Pay stacked March 29th: from a Starship Gazer photo it was noticed that the Nosecone had been stacked onto the Payload Bay.

B12 Rocket Garden Display vehicle October 13th: Launched as planned and on landing was successfully caught by the tower's chopsticks. October 15th: Removed from the OLM, set down on a booster transport stand and rolled back to MB1. October 28th: Rolled out of MB1 and moved to the Rocket Garden. January 9th: Moved into MB1, rumors around Starbase are that it is to be modified for display. January 15th: Transferred to an old remaining version of the booster transport stand and moved from MB1 back to the Rocket Garden for display purposes.
B14 Launch Site Testing prior to its second launch, Flight 9 Launched as planned and successfully caught by the tower's chopsticks. January 18th: Rolled back to the Build Site and into MB1. End of January: Assorted chine sections removed from MB1, these are assumed to be from B14. April 1st: Rolled out to the Launch Site for testing (likely some cryo and a static fire). April 2nd: Static Fire - SpaceX stated that 29 out of the 33 Raptor engines are flight proven.
B15 Rocket Garden Temporary Storage February 25th: Rolled out to the Launch Site for launch, the Hot Stage Ring was rolled out separately but in the same convoy. The Hot Stage Ring was lifted onto B15 in the afternoon, but later removed. February 27th: Hot Stage Ring reinstalled. February 28th: FTS charges installed. March 6th: Launched on time and successfully caught, just over an hour later it was set down on the OLM. March 8th: Rolled back to Mega Bay 1. March 19th: The white protective 'cap' was installed on B15, it was then rolled out to the Rocket Garden to free up some space inside MB1 for B16. It was also noticed that possibly all of the Raptors had been removed.
B16 Mega Bay 1 Fully stacked, cryo tested, remaining work ongoing November 25th: LOX tank fully stacked with the Aft/Thrust section. December 5th: Methane Tank sections FX:3 and F2:3 moved into MB1. December 12th: Forward section F3:3 moved into MB1 and stacked with the rest of the Methane tank sections. December 13th: F4:4 section moved into MB1 and stacked, so completing the stacking of the Methane tank. December 26th: Methane tank stacked onto LOX tank. February 28th: Rolled out to Massey's Test Site on the booster thrust simulator stand for cryo testing. February 28th: Methane tank cryo tested. March 4th: LOX and Methane tanks cryo tested. March 21st: Rolled back to the build site.
B17 Mega Bay 1 Fully stacked, remaining work ongoing March 5th: Methane tank stacked onto LOX tank, so completing the stacking of the booster (stacking was started on January 4th).

Capabilities Crew Flights to ISS or Low Earth Orbit

Details

Crew Dragon 2 is capable of lifting four astronauts, or a combination of crew and cargo to and from low Earth orbit. Its heat shield is designed to withstand Earth re-entry velocities from Lunar and Martian spaceflights.

History

Crew Dragon 2 is a spacecraft developed by SpaceX, an American private space transportation company based in Hawthorne, California. Dragon is launched into space by the SpaceX Falcon 9 two-stage-to-orbit launch vehicle. It is one of two American Spacecraft being develeoped capable of lifting American Astronauts to the International Space Station.

The first crewed flight, launched on 30 May 2020 on a Falcon 9 rocket, and carried NASA astronauts Douglas Hurley and Robert Behnken to the International Space Station in the first crewed orbital spaceflight launched from the US since the final Space Shuttle mission in 2011, and the first ever operated by a commercial provider.
