JAKARTA - SpaceX can start testing the launch of the Starship rocket system in March. This was revealed from Elon Musk's Twitter on Saturday, February 4th.

"If the remaining tests go well, we'll be looking to launch Starship next month," Musk said in response to a user's tweet about Starship.

If remaining tests go well, we will attempt a Starship launch next month

Musk in January said that there was a "real shot" to launch Starship by the end of February. He added that an attempted March launch looked very likely.

Elon Musk's Starship project is a rocket development program that aims to bring humans to Mars and carry out urban activities on the planet. Starship is part of the planned Mars missions from SpaceX. The launch date is still uncertain and depends on the ongoing testing phase.

SpaceX has, since last year, launched its giant Starship into orbit for the first time, an important demonstration flight as it aims to fly NASA astronauts to the moon.
