Eleventh flight of Starship and Super Heavy. This was the final flight of v2 Starship and the final flight from Starbase Pad 1 in its current configuration.
Starship Flight 11's objectives and flight profile are similar to those attempted on the previous several launches. The booster on this flight test previously flew on Flight 8 and will launch with 24 flight-proven Raptor engines. Its primary test objective will be demonstrating a unique landing burn engine configuration planned to be used on the next generation Super Heavy. The Starship upper stage will target multiple in-space objectives, including the deployment of eight Starlink simulators, similar in size to next-generation Starlink satellites. The Starlink simulators will be on the same suborbital trajectory as Starship and are expected to demise upon entry. A relight of a single Raptor engine while in space is also planned.
