SpaceX Upcoming changes on Starship Flight 4 | Rare Total solar eclipse 2024 in Texas

Welcome back to another episode of Engineering Today, and I hope you’re all having a great time.

SpaceX recently made a huge progress towards its upcoming Starship rocket launch. They completed an important "static fire" with Booster 11. During this test, the booster's engines, called Raptors, fired up, creating shockwaves in the exhaust cloud. When operating at 50% capacity, Booster 11 generates about 3800 tons of thrust, which is incredibly powerful. If it runs at full throttle, it could even dig a tunnel into steel concrete—that's how strong it is!
