Mission Profile

How a Starship Flight Works

From liftoff to splashdown, the way a Starbase launch actually flies. After hot-stage separation the path splits: Super Heavy boosts back for a tower catch, while Starship flies on and comes down downrange.

  1. Launch

    33 Raptors ignite; the full stack lifts off

  2. Max Q

    Peak aerodynamic stress on the vehicle

  3. Hot-Stage Separation

    Ship's engines light and push off the booster

Super Heavy: returns to Starbase

  1. Boostback Burn

    Super Heavy flips and burns back toward Starbase

  2. Landing Burn

    Relights to slow down for the catch

  3. Tower Catch

    Mechazilla's chopstick arms catch the booster

Starship: flies on downrange

  1. Engine Cutoff

    Ship reaches near-orbital speed; engines cut off

  2. Coast

    Falls halfway around the planet

  3. Reentry

    Heat-shield tiles glow at peak heating

  4. Bellyflop

    Falls belly-first; flaps steer the descent

  5. Flip & Landing Burn

    Flips upright and relights to slow down

  6. Ocean Splashdown

    Soft touchdown in the Indian Ocean
