Starship's 10th flight test was scheduled to lift off from SpaceX's Starbase launch site in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. The company has yet to successfully complete a mission for the stainless-steel spacecraft, which is being engineered to be fully reusable and would be able to carry up to 100 people to deep space destinations.

SpaceX has lined up its massive Starship and Super Heavy rocket for what would be its 10th suborbital test flight aiming to complete goals that have fallen short so far in 2025.

The launch from Starbase in southern Texas was called off with just 40 seconds on the clock. The clock had been held at 40 seconds due to an anvil cloud in the area that had to clear in a certain timeframe. Having failed to move far enough away from the site, SpaceX scrubbed what would have been the Starship rocket’s 10th test flight.
