SpaceX called off the launch of its Starship Flight 13 test mission just seconds before liftoff on Thursday, after an issue occurred during the ignition sequence of the rocket’s first-stage engines. The launch attempt from the company’s Starbase facility in South Texas was scheduled for 6.45 pm EDT (04.15 am IST Friday) at the start of a 90-minute launch window. However, the countdown halted moments before launch as the vehicle’s 33 Raptor engines began firing up.The countdown was halted during the first-stage engine ignition sequence, and Elon Musk said two Raptor engines will be replaced before the next launch attempt. Should we expect such errors after all the launches ?
