SpaceX is still in the process of testing out the Starship on its orbital launch which would signify the spacecraft's capabilities of going in future missions for its use.

Now, Elon Musk revealed that there is a chance that the company will bring a successful orbital launch in one to twelve months, and it may happen any time since the CEO's statement regarding its testing.

After the recent incident, it seems that SpaceX is already gearing up to resume its tests for the company.

Elon Musk is back on Twitter and talking about SpaceX's Starship rocket that would soon bring the world to Mars, especially during its brief hiatus to fix the spacecraft from its recent incident.

Less than a month ago, the Starship's Booster 7 exploded, and it brings a significant dispute for the Raptor engines that the world witnessed.

Musk said that it is looking at a "successful" orbital test launch for the Starship in one to twelve months, and that may mean it may achieve it within the time frame.

It comes from a question that a user presented to him, especially as it is known that SpaceX is still fixing the rocket for its use and testing.

Is the Starship Resuming its Testing for the Rocket?

Musk's return to discussing Starship's existence on Twitter may signify that the team is readying for an upcoming orbital test flight for the rocket in the coming days, weeks, or months. The timeline is unclear for when Starship would launch again, but it only shows that the company is still pushing forth with the venture, despite the results it would garner.

SpaceX's Starship and its Progress

The world saw a massive explosion from the last orbital launch test that SpaceX and the Starship focused on for the progression of its space rocket towards its future use. The explosion came in early July, and it comes immediately after the go signal it received that clears the company for their environmental assessment from the FAA.

It still focuses on the massive future that SpaceX has for the spacecraft that will soon be the vessel that will arrive on Mars and bring humans to the neighboring planet.

Despite its reusability feature, Musk and SpaceX plan to create 1,000 units of the Starship rocket to bring many missions including the crewed venture for the company.

It still falls under the multi-planetary goals that SpaceX aims to achieve for the world.

Nevertheless, it needs to start from the bottom and have a successful orbital launch test that would signify the spacecraft's capabilities to bring its entirety to Mars.

Additionally, SpaceX needs to prove its safety and reliability for future missions, especially as it aims to deliver a reusable rocket for multiple ventures.
