Noticias de SpaceX y Starbase

Boca Chica Beach and Highway 4 are scheduled to close that day, from 11:59 p.m.. Transporter and Bandwagon are SpaceX's rideshare missions: one rocket splitting its payload bay among many small satellites from different customers.

Starlink is SpaceX's satellite internet constellation. It is the payload on most Falcon 9 launches, which is why those flights come in such steady batches.

Published NaN days after Flight 14 flew, which graded success. Starship is the fully reusable rocket SpaceX builds and flies at Starbase: the Super Heavy booster plus the Starship upper stage, stacked about 400 feet tall.

Falcon Heavy is three Falcon 9 first stages strapped together, used for the heaviest payloads SpaceX flies. It launches rarely, a few times a year at most.

Dragon is the capsule that carries cargo and astronauts to the International Space Station, currently the only US vehicle flying crew there.

Falcon 9 is the workhorse: a partly reusable two-stage rocket that flies most weeks from Florida and California, and the vehicle Starship is eventually meant to replace.

Crew and cargo runs to the International Space Station are the flights with people or perishable science aboard, which is why their schedules slip far less than test flights do.

Published NaN days after Flight 14 flew, which graded success. SpaceX numbers each airframe rather than each flight, so a headline about Ship 40 or Booster 21 is about one specific vehicle, not the mission number.

Classified launches fly with the payload details withheld and the webcast usually cut after the first stage separates, so coverage of them is thin by design.

Starbase is wedged between a state park and a national wildlife refuge, so SpaceX expanding its footprint there means land swaps and beach access fights, not just construction.

Super Heavy is the first stage, the part that does the initial lift and then either splashes down offshore or flies back to be caught by the tower arms.
