The two modified satellites will test hardware planned for Starlink V3 and will attempt to scan Starship’s heat shield and transmit imagery down to operators to test methods of analyzing Starship’s heat shield readiness for return to launch site on future missions. Several tiles on Starship have been painted white to simulate missing tiles and serve as imaging targets in the test. The Starlink simulators will be on the same suborbital trajectory as Starship. A relight of a single Raptor engine while in space is also planned.\r\n\r\nFor Starship entry, a single heat shield tile has been intentionally removed to measure the aerodynamic load differences on adjacent tiles when there is a tile missing. Finally, the ship will perform experimental actions tested on previous flight tests, including a maneuver to intentionally stress the structural limits of the vehicle’s rear flaps and a dynamic banking maneuver to mimic the trajectory that future missions returning to Starbase will fly.", "launch_designator": null, "type": "Test Flight", "orbit": { "id": 15, "name": "Suborbital", "abbrev": "Sub" } }, "pad": { "id": 235, "url": "https://lldev.thespacedevs.com/2.0.0/pad/235/?format=api", "agency_id": 121, "name": "Orbital Launch Pad 2", "info_url": null, "wiki_url": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpaceX_Starbase#Launch_site_(Orbital_Launch_Mount_(Pad_1_and_2))", "map_url": "https://www.google.com/maps?q=25.996770,-97.157990", "latitude": "25.99677", "longitude": "-97.15799", "location": { "id": 143, "url": "https://lldev.thespacedevs.com/2.0.0/location/143/?format=api", "name": "SpaceX Starbase, TX, USA", "country_code": "USA", "map_image": "https://thespacedevs-dev.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/map_images/location_143_20200803142438.jpg", "total_launch_count": 21, "total_landing_count": 13 }, "map_image": "https://thespacedevs-dev.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/map_images/pad_orbital_launch_mount_b_20241126031254.jpg", "total_launch_count": 1 }, "webcast_live": false, "image": "https://thespacedevs-dev.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/images/starship_liftof_image_20260523085855.jpg", "infographic": null, "program": [ { "id": 1, "url": "https://lldev.thespacedevs.com/2.0.0/program/1/?format=api", "name": "SpaceX Starship", "description": "The SpaceX Starship is a fully reusable super heavy-lift launch vehicle under development by SpaceX since 2012, as a self-funded private spaceflight project.
