SpaceX tracks Starship with new satellite
SpaceX successfully documented the thirteenth experimental flight of the Starship vehicle using the new generation Starlink V3 satellites, which were equipped with cameras to capture high-quality images of the spacecraft's heat shield. The images showed the vehicle orbiting in space while three of its Raptor engines were activated, performing maneuvers to adjust its trajectory, in order to evaluate its performance. After approximately 20 minutes following separation, the satellites returned to Earth. This step paves the way for deploying large numbers of satellites into higher orbits to strengthen the Starlink network, and the mission highlights Starship's reusable capabilities and its support for future space endeavors.
