* A second attempt at launching Starship is tonight Friday May 22nd at 6:30 pm EST - SpaceX's Starship Launch Coverage starts at 5:58 pm EST. This will be a 1 hour 5 minute and 26 second flight. Live deployment of satellites begins 20 minutes into flight, re-entry 50 minutes

SpaceX aborted the Starship Flight 12 launch Thursday with just seconds left on the countdown because a hydraulic pin holding the launch tower's quick-disconnect arm in place failed to retract. This meant the arm could not safely disengage from the rocket. This technical glitch along with fuel temperature and pressure fluctuations caused multiple automatic countdown resets. Repeated holds in the final seconds of the countdown forced the launch team into troubleshooting which ultimately caused the propellant tank temperature and pressure readings to rise out of optimal limits forcing an abort - SQD Arm - zoom

It takes about 50 to 90 tanker trucks to completely fill the deluge system tanks at SpaceX's Starbase, assuming typical 6,000 to 12,000-gallon bulk tanker capacities. Cryo trucks also deliverying propellant, super cooled methane and liquid oxygen - Filling up for today's launch. Scroll back to see trucks unloading
