SpaceX will attempt to launch the most powerful rocket ever constructed this morning after years of testing. Follow live updates here 🚀
People gather before SpaceX's Starship lifts off from the company's Boca Chica launchpad on an orbital test mission near Brownsville, Texas, on Monday, April 17. Folks on the ground near SpaceX's facilities in South Texas can certainly catch an in-person glimpse. Locals are known to line the surrounding beaches in South Padre Island to watch tests, and this launch is sure to draw spectators.
SpaceX has repeatedly warned those in the area, however, to stay away from the"Keepout Zone" — the areas directly surrounding the launch site that have been deemed too close to the rocket to be safe during launch. The"Keepout Zone" includes the coastline south of South Padre Island and stretches a few miles inland."Those in Cameron County and nearby areas may hear a loud noise resulting from the rocket's 33 Raptor engines firing up upon ignition and as the vehicle launches toward space, but what individuals experience will depend on weather and other conditions."Dr.
But, folks in Hawaii should be able to see the Starship spacecraft as it plunges back into Earth's atmosphere after the flight. The reentry process is known to cause spacecraft to light up as the intense speeds and pressure on the vehicle create a fiery blaze.
