Starship's 10th flight test was scheduled to lift off from SpaceX's Starbase launch site in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. The company has yet to successfully complete a mission for the stainless-steel spacecraft, which is being engineered to be fully reusable and would be able to carry up to 100 people to deep space destinations.

SpaceX has called off its 10th Starship flight due to lightning risks from anvil clouds, marking the second consecutive launch delay amid ongoing technical and weather setbacks.
