SpaceX completes final Starship V2 flight, prepares for more powerful V3

SpaceX successfully launched and recovered its Starship V2 prototype, marking the final flight for this configuration before transitioning to a more powerful successor. The V2 completed its flight plan, including a controlled splashdown in the Gulf of Mexico and a separate splashdown in the Indian Ocean after releasing dummy satellites. Attention now shifts to Starship V3, which will be taller with larger propellant tanks and upgraded Raptor 3 engines, crucial for NASA's Artemis lunar missions.
