SpaceX Starhopper Static Fire (Raptor SN6) - July 16, 2019

Published on Jul 17, 2019

Late at night on July 16, SpaceX's Starhopper underwent a Static Fire test with SN6 Raptor.

The actual firing was an expected duration firing of Raptor, but teams are evaluating off nominal issues that later included a fireball from the aft area (Hopper or GSE) during safing. Hopper is still standing, but the area will need to be safed to check on what requires repair.
