Feb. 9 (UPI) -- SpaceX attempted to fire all 33 engines for Booster 7, a prototype for Starship's Super Heavy rocket, successfully igniting 31 of the Raptor engines during the test Thursday.
"Team turned off one engine just before start and one stopped itself, so 31 engines fired overall," Elon Musk, the SpaceX founder, said in a statement on Twitter after the test was completed. "But still enough engines to reach orbit!"
