While it didn’t happen in a lab or on a test stand, it was absolutely a test. What we did with this second flight will provide invaluable data to continue rapidly developing Starship.
The test achieved a number of major milestones, helping us improve Starship’s reliability as SpaceX seeks to make life multiplanetary. The team at Starbase is already working final preparations on the vehicles slated for use in Starship’s third flight test.
Congratulations to the entire SpaceX team on an exciting second flight test of Starship!

With that music it is so cool to watch. It´s almost like a short cinematic movie, at the beginning where the ignition was there was silence and than the sound of the 33 Raptors fireing. Its just amazing! Great job.
