If all goes according to plan, <strong>today, April 17, we will see the rocket soar through the atmosphere<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first Starship spacecraft and Super Heavy rocket are currently scheduled to launch from <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/nasa-news-artemis-spacex\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SpaceX<\/a>&#8216;s Starbase facility in Boca Chica, Texas.

The live broadcast will start about 45 minutes before liftoff (<strong>7:15 AM EDT or 14:15 in Spain<\/strong>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed-Youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Starship Flight Test\" width=\"840\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/L5QXreqOrTA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spacex.com\/launches\/mission\/?missionId=starship-flight-test\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">SpaceX has broken down on its website<\/a> all the steps that will be followed at the time of launch along with their times. As mentioned earlier, the company has a tight 150-minute window to make the launch. However, it has been implied that SpaceX may have set aside additional days (<strong>April 18 and 19<\/strong>) for other attempts in case there are problems today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What time will it be launched?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SpaceX plans to launch Starship and Super Heavy between 8<strong>:00 and 10:30 AM EDT (15:00-17:30 in Spain)<\/strong>.
