SpaceX Launches 11th Starship Test Flight in Texas
- SpaceX launched Starship Flight 11 from Starbase in southern Texas on Monday, October 13, 2025, completing the test with the Super Heavy booster splashing down in the Gulf of Mexico.
- Testing focused on data collection to advance Starship's role in NASA's Artemis and long-term Mars ambitions, gathering critical data to guide next-generation booster improvements under a more than $3 billion Artemis contract.
- At 6:23 p.m. CT the Starship stack lifted off and the Ship's Raptors ignited during hot-staging; the Super Heavy booster returned for a soft water landing roughly 10 minutes later while the Ship landed in the Indian Ocean 66 minutes after launch.
- This success advances SpaceX toward fully reusable systems and may conclude the company's 2025 launch slate, with the 12th flight debuting Starship Version 3, Acting NASA Administrator Sean Duffy said.
- Using Starlink, SpaceX livestreamed Flight 11 and verified the feed on its official X account; the company seeks FAA approval for routes over Florida or past Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula and the Cayman Islands.
