SpaceX has announced that the Starship will conduct its 13th test flight, which will be launched as early as 18:45 on Thursday, with a 90 minute window. The main goal of this test flight was to verify inter-stage separation, engine performance and controlled re-entry capability, and to deploy 20 new-generation Starlink V3 satellites equipped with advanced laser links for the first time. Musk also said earlier that this test flight will accumulate key data for the 14th test flight to achieve offshore recycling rockets.
