SpaceX Completes Block 2 and Pad 1 with Successful Flight 11
SpaceX completed the use of Block 2 and Pad 1 on a high note with a completely successful mission with Flight 11.
Booster 15-2 and Ship 38 completed all of their objectives and helped to erase the disappointment from Block 2 earlier in the year.
Booster 15-2 and Ship 38 lifted off at 6:23:45 from Pad 1 at Starbase, Texas.
- All 33 engines were running at liftoff.
- No engines shut off during the ascent, unlike Flight 10.
Hotstaging was completed flawlessly for the last time with this ship and booster configuration.
This system was introduced during the downtime between Flight 1 and 2 and hasn’t seemed to cause any issues for either the ship or booster.
Author summary: SpaceX Flight 11 successful.
