SpaceX Starship integrated flight test 6 (IFT-6) will be the sixth integrated flight test of a prototype Starship launch vehicle. The prototype vehicles planned to be flown are the Ship 31 upper-stage and Booster 13.[1]

SpaceX is expecting to perform the flight test in 2024.[2][3] As of June 2024, the flight profile for flight 6 remains unknown.

Background[edit]

Vehicle testing ahead of launch[edit]

S31 was rolled to Masseys for cryogenic testing on May 11.[4] During its first cryogenic test on May 12, an electrical anomaly occurred,[5] and was rolled back to the production site for repairs on May 15.[6]
