SpaceX Starship prototype SN8 had a (mostly) very successful first high-altitude test flight today, on (mostly) three engines.
Because most of the press today is a bit fixated on the final few seconds of the flight, I'm instead posting a photo from when it was still flying nominally. It was, in all, a very good test flight. And yes, in future flights, SpaceX will certainly improve on the final few seconds of flight as well, because they're also super important.
Yes, the title is a Space 1999 reference.
