SpaceX Starship to make its biggest hop yet

The video discusses SpaceX's Starship prototype, which is set to undergo a high altitude test flight from Boca Chica, Texas. The test aims to reach 50,000 feet, allowing SpaceX to conduct new tests on the spacecraft's body flaps, propellant switching, and reorientation for landing.
