SpaceX cancels test launch of Super Heavy rocket

SpaceX on Tuesday, March 4, canceled the eighth test launch of the Starship spacecraft with a Super Heavy launch vehicle.

"Today's test flight attempt has been canceled. The Starship team is determining the next best available flight opportunity," the SpaceX development company said on its Facebook page.

The decision was made just 40 minutes before the start. The reasons for canceling the launch were not disclosed.

The last test flight was carried out on January 17, but failed. The second stage of the rocket failed to reach orbit and then exploded.
