Space historian Robert Zimmerman of behindtheblack.com joins us to discuss the big test. See: SpaceX’s Superheavy/Starship successfully launches. “The flight achieved almost all of its test goals, and far exceeded what was accomplished on the previous test launch in November.”

Here is an example of misleading and negative headlines:

  • AP: Third Test Flight of SpaceX’s Mega Rocket Ends With Loss of Spacecraft
  • Reuters: SpaceX Confirms Loss of Starship at End of Third Test Flight

More local media got it right:

  • KVEO: “Furthest and fastest”: SpaceX successfully launches third Starship
  • Austin Statesman: SpaceX’s Starship successfully enters space in third test flight
