About a month ago it was reported that the first prototype of this series — SN1 — exploded during the tests. However, it is, apparently, not forced SpaceX to suspend the tests and the giant tank of the second prototype, SN2, two weeks later was successfully tested.

Under the Mask test model Starship submitted all three prototypes should fly to a height of about 20 kilometers and return to Earth.

Starship is a new system of the company SpaceX, which should include the spaceship (it is called the Starship) and rocket booster (Super Heavy) and which are expected to be able to fly to the moon and to Mars.
