SpaceX’s behemoth Starship rocket took to the skies above the Gulf of America for the 11th time on the evening of Oct. 13 for what would ultimately be a successful test of the vehicle’s durability.

Lifting off from pad 1 at Starbase for the last time, Starship and its Super Heavy booster roared into the clear Texas skies just after 6:20 p.m. CT.
