SpaceX Boca Chica, Texas attempted a fifth static fire on Starship SN9 today as it continues to iron out minor issues with the raptor engine trio. Two raptors were replaced late last week for this particular test. After todays event I’m still not sure that they are ready for a launch. The ignition seemed to be rougher than usual as you can tell how the camera shook more than the last three ignitions.
