SpaceX ApStarships were meant to fly (in Florida) More photos from the first flight test of a fully integrated Starship and Super Heavy rocket /tnd6Vkw5uR “I see no reason why they can’t do with Starship what they’ve been doing with the Falcon 9,” he added. And clearly, you want to be able to build it so that it can be used multiple times, which is their plan.” So, I suspect it will cause a lot of learning to be infused back into the design of the improvements that we’re making to the pad here. “The company learned a lot in this display, both about the rocket itself as well as the launch system and the impact on the ground,” he said. DiBello believes SpaceX and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the agency that oversees both launch licenses and commercial spaceflight mishaps, learned a lot from the flight and will make improvements for the future. He said seeing the automated flight termination system trigger and destroy Starship was not surprising, given the anomaly detected during its first test flight.
“They achieved flight in a way that they learned a lot from the things that might not have gone wrong.”ĭiBello has been at the helm of Space Florida, an organization designed to help foster investment in Florida’s aerospace economy and expand industry growth, for the past 15 years. “It was exciting, clearly, and in many ways it was a successful test launch, which is what it was intended to be,” said DiBello in an interview with Spectrum News. A final environmental assessment report regarding the expansion is expected in the next couple of months for public review.If approved, the expansion would allow SpaceX to consolidate its Brevard County assets.
