Raptor Down

Starship V3 made its debut on Flight 12 (May 23, 2026): 408 feet tall, 18 million lbs of thrust, 33 Raptor 3 engines — mostly successful but two failed mid-flight, the booster crashed in the Gulf of Mexico, and the space restart was scrubbed. The ship survived reentry and splashed down in the Indian Ocean. Starlink also raised prices $5–10/month with 9M+ subscribers.
