SpaceX boss Elon Musk has promised to lay out his company’s plans for the mighty Starship rocket in an upcoming event. In a post on X on Thursday night, he said the presentation will take place shortly before the rocket’s 10th flight test, which is expected to take place next in the first half of next month.

No one doubts that rocket tests mean failures, but the question for Starship is this: Is it just having extended teething pains, or are its failures a symptom of a fundamentally unworkable design that will never be fixed?
