SpaceX Reports Not All 33 Engines Fired on Starship Static Fire Test—Not Ready for March Orbital Launch?
SpaceX successfully finished the Starship's static fire test, and while the outcome was favorable for the company, there were significant hiccups when it blasted all of its 33 engines earlier. Out of 33 Raptor engines that were all fired, two saw malfunctions, and in the end, only 31 of its boosters completed the mission.
This is a significant step for SpaceX as this was the first time that its Starship venture fired all of its engines in a single test, one that would be similar to when it would go on missions.
