SpaceX postponed the 10th test flight of its Starship rocket minutes before launch due to a ground systems issue. The delay follows earlier failures in Flights 7, 8, and 9. Starship is intended for NASA’s Artemis 3 lunar mission and future Mars exploration.
In a post shared on social media platform X, SpaceX CEO Musk said Starship will carry Tesla humanoid robot Optimus to Mars. If conditions look suitable for humans, it could start "as soon as 2029."
