Reportado por IA

A SpaceX está preparando a terceira versão do foguete Starship para um lançamento de teste que pode ocorrer já na quarta-feira. O veículo passou por extensos redesenhos após uma série de contratempos em 2025. O sucesso é visto como fundamental para as ambições mais amplas da empresa no lançamento espacial e empreendimentos relacionados.

O próximo voo marcará o primeiro teste do Starship V3 desde outubro do ano passado. Os engenheiros incorporaram centenas de mudanças com base em voos anteriores, incluindo um design mais leve do motor Raptor e um sistema de propulsão aprimorado para o estágio superior. Um teste de disparo estático bem-sucedido foi concluído no início de maio, após tentativas anteriores terem sido interrompidas por problemas de sensores e abortagens automáticas.
