SpaceX2021 launch
In 2021, SpaceX launched several missions. Among them, the SpaceX Crew - 2 mission was launched on April 23,2021 (Eastern Time) on the Falcon 9 rocket from the Kennedy Space Center in Orlando, sending four astronauts to the International Space Station for a six-month mission. On February 14, 2021, NASA announced that two astronauts on the SpaceX Crew - 4 mission would head to the International Space Station. The Crew - 4 mission was scheduled to launch in 2022. In addition, on May 5,2021, SpaceX conducted a test flight of the prototype rocket, the SSN15, in Texas, and achieved a successful landing for the first time.

SpaceX fuel
The fuel of the SpaceX rocket was as follows: The white vortex formed during the launch of the SpaceX rocket was related to fuel. The super-heavy thrusters and the final stage of the interstellar spacecraft were made of steel. When the fuel tank was filled with fuel, the amount of propellant would appear in the form of frost on the outside. This was a key indicator of the preparation work before flight. The first-generation interstellar spacecraft had a propellent capacity of 1200 tons, and the second-generation interstellar spacecraft's final tank was filled with more propellants than the first-generation spacecraft. After analysis, the newer spacecraft might be able to carry 1.5 times more propellants than the previous generation spacecraft. In addition, SpaceX may drill natural gas in Texas as a power fuel to launch its new Starship.

SpaceX Interstellar Spaceship
The SpaceX spacecraft had a diameter of 9 meters, a height of 50 meters, and a total height of 120 meters (including super-heavy boosters). It was the tallest and heaviest rocket in the world, with a total weight of 5000 tons (including super-heavy boosters weighing 3600 tons and starships weighing 1300 tons). It could send at least 150 tons of payloads into Earth orbit.

SpaceX Starship Explodes
SpaceX's starship exploded during multiple test flights.
On May 29, 2020, the prototype of the Starship spacecraft, the SSN4, exploded during the engine test in Texas, and on February 2, 2021 (local time), the prototype of the Starship, the SSN9, exploded during the test flight. After April 2023, there were also many explosions during the test flight. For example, on November 18th, 2023, the second super-heavy spacecraft rocket test launch was carried out in Bokachica, Texas. About eight minutes after the launch, the second stage of the rocket exploded in the upper atmosphere, forming a short ionosphere hole. In 2024, during the flight test in June, the huge spacecraft was basically intact during the descent, but it fell into the ocean. On the fifth orbital test flight on October 13, the spacecraft successfully completed a series of operations before landing, but it exploded in the ocean a few seconds later. However, despite the explosion, SpaceX continued to make progress, such as the first time it used a giant robotic arm to "grab" the rocket's first-stage thruster back to the launch pad in Texas.

SpaceX Starship Launch
SpaceX's interstellar spacecraft had already launched many times. After two explosive test flights in 2023, the third launch was carried out in 2024 from the interplanetary base in Bocachica, Texas. The goal was to pass a one-hour comprehensive flight test. If successful, it would crash into the Indian Ocean. The launch spacecraft remained intact and flew as planned. In June 2024, the fourth launch was carried out, completing the experimental goal, achieving the extreme temperature test, and achieving the recovery of the first and second stages. In the fifth test flight on October 14th, 2024, the super heavy thruster survived after returning to the launch pad. The spacecraft performed well during the return from space. In the first attempt, it successfully caught the super heavy thruster with a robotic arm (chopstick) at the launch tower. In addition, SpaceX was waiting for the approval of its fifth "Starship" test flight plan by the Federal Aerospace Administration. SpaceX carried out preparatory work such as launch pad and tower arm tests, and the second stage of the rocket had already undergone multiple static firings before the fifth flight. The fifth "Starship" test may be carried out in late August or early September 2024.

SpaceX launch update
SpaceX plans to conduct the sixth flight test mission of the Starship as early as 16:00 Central Time on November 18, 2024 (6:00 Beijing time the next day). SpaceX's Starbase operations director revealed that the super-heavy rocket/starship spacecraft was scheduled to be launched 25 times next year (2025). If the flight was successful, it was planned to complete the recovery of the starship spacecraft within six months. In the last (fifth) test, SpaceX successfully "clamped" the super-heavy thruster with the "chopsticks" robotic arm, and the upper stage of the starship performed a controlled splash in the Indian Ocean. The next test would repeat these steps and continue to test the superior thermal protection system and re-entry maneuverability.

SpaceX leads the world
SpaceX was a world leader in many aspects.
In terms of rocket launch and recycling technology, SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket successfully achieved the first level of recycling and reuse. This technology could reduce costs by about 30%, which was a major breakthrough in cost control in the aerospace field.
In terms of commercial aerospace business, SpaceX launched orbital rocket launch, manned space flight, satellite internet service (star chain business) and many other businesses. Its star chain business developed rapidly. As of November 7,2023, it had launched more than 5000 satellites into low-Earth orbit and more than 4700 satellites in orbit, becoming the world's largest satellite operator.
In terms of manned space flight, Falcon 9 launched a new manned dragon spacecraft on May 30, 2020, opening a new era of commercial manned space flight.
In the development of launch vehicles, SpaceX's starship was a fully reused heavy-duty launch vehicle system with a total height of 120 meters, a diameter of 9 meters, and a total thrust of 7590 tons. It was the world's highest thrust rocket to date. Its goal was to realize human exploration of Earth's orbit, the Moon, Mars, and other planets. It had great potential for interstellar travel and interstellar exploration.

SpaceX's History
SpaceX was founded by Elon Musk on March 14, 2002. At that time, he invested most of the money he earned from his start-up into the rocket launch industry, and few people believed that he would succeed in the early days.
From 2006 to 2008, SpaceX conducted three rocket tests but all failed, and its self-developed rockets were ridiculed. On September 29, 2008, Falcon 1 launched a virtual load into space after three failed launch attempts. On July 14, 2009, its fifth launch put the Brazilian Earth observation satellite RazakSTAR into orbit. On June 7, 2010, Falcon 9 was launched for the first time from Cape Canaveral Air Force Base in California. SpaceX successfully made its first flight of the Dragon cargo spacecraft on December 8, 2010. On May 25, 2012, the Dragon safely arrived at the International Space Station. This was the first time a private spacecraft docked with the space station. In 2012 - 2013, the Grasshopper rocket prototype underwent eight test flights to help develop the first stage of the Falcon 9. On April 18, 2014, Falcon 9 achieved a controlled ocean landing on its ninth launch. On December 21, 2015, it successfully landed for the first time at Landing Zone 1 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Base, Fla.
On August 28, 2019, a single Raptor engine and fixed-point landing test were successful. During 2020, the starship underwent a series of tests, including a failed low temperature resistance test, a successful low temperature pressure test, a failed low temperature strength verification, an explosive static ignition test, a successful 150-meter test jump (sn5 and sn6), a failed tank low temperature pressure test and pressurizing test, and flight tests at different altitudes (sn8-sn11, etc., of which sn15 completed a 10-kilometer jump flight test and successfully landed on may 6,2021). From August 2021 to 2022, three starship fusion exercises will be conducted. On April 20, 2023, the starship took off from Texas and exploded four minutes after it took off. On November 18, 2023, the starship launched for the second time. After the rocket separated, the thrusters exploded and the starship lost contact. On March 14th, 2024, the third launch of the starship was successful, but the super-heavy thrusters did not fall into the sea as planned, and the main body of the starship disintegrated in the atmosphere.
