SpaceX Starship Hop Now Likely Next Week

It looks like a test launch of a SpaceX Starship prototype will remain on hold until early next week. FAA-approved flight restrictions for today's launch of the Starship SN8 from Boca Chica Beach have reportedly been pulled. Some sort of testing at the site remains possible today, as road closures remain in effect. SpaceX has also reportedly lowered the maximum height that the Starship prototype will reach, dropping the test hop from nearly 50-thousand-feet to just over 41-thousand-feet. No reason was given for the change.
