Details
As early as Wednesday, March 3, the SpaceX team will attempt a high-altitude flight test of Starship serial number 10 (SN10) – our third high-altitude suborbital flight test of a Starship prototype from SpaceX’s site in Cameron County, Texas. Similar to the high-altitude flight tests of Starship SN8 and SN9, SN10 will be powered through ascent by three Raptor engines, each shutting down in sequence prior to the vehicle reaching apogee – approximately 10 km in altitude. SN10 will perform a propellant transition to the internal header tanks, which hold landing propellant, before reorienting itself for reentry and a controlled aerodynamic descent.
The Starship prototype will descend under active aerodynamic control, accomplished by independent movement of two forward and two aft flaps on the vehicle. All four flaps are actuated by an onboard flight computer to control Starship’s attitude during flight and enable precise landing at the intended location. SN10’s Raptor engines will then reignite as the vehicle attempts a landing flip maneuver immediately before touching down on the landing pad adjacent to the launch mount.
A controlled aerodynamic descent with body flaps and vertical landing capability, combined with in-space refilling, are critical to landing Starship at destinations across the solar system where prepared surfaces or runways do not exist, and returning to Earth. This capability will enable a fully reusable transportation system designed to carry both crew and cargo on long-duration, interplanetary flights and help humanity return to the Moon, and travel to Mars and beyond.
There will be a live feed of the flight test available here that will start a few minutes prior to liftoff. Given the dynamic schedule of development testing, stay tuned to our social media channels for updates as we move toward SpaceX’s third high-altitude flight test of Starship!
Scheduled for tomorrow Wednesday, March 3rd, 2021, 6:00 PM - 0:00 AM UTC
10 km Test Flight:
- The SN10 Starship will perform a test flight similar to SN8 and SN9. It will launch up to an altitude of 10 km or 33,000 ft, do a belly flop maneuver followed by a controlled descent to the landing pad.
Note: Date / time may change!

See if we get some fireworks with another Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly (RUD) or not … 
Will try to update this post as per usual
Update:
The usual selection of channels Live on YouTube right now:
LabPadre 
NASASpaceflight 
Everyday Astronaut 
SpaceX Live feed should be made available shortly before launch. (YouTube)
Update:
They are chilling the engines, so we appear to be close to a launch!
Update:
Damnit … Total Thrust Abort! (20:14:38 UTC March 3rd 2021)
Possible de-tank / re-tank / launch later ???
Evaluating Next Attempt Opportunity
Possibly a delay of approximately 2 hours. (22:30 UTC)
Update:
T -03:00
RESULT SPOILERS !!!
Takeoff
Landing

Woo Hoooo !!! (23:21:05 UTC)
Some time later … (23:29:23 UTC)
