SN9 flight today:

After several test flights including the historic SN8, which failed near the end of 2020 because of low header tank pressure, SN9 has been tested. After first tipping over in mid-bay but not acquiring any terminal damage and getting stabilized and rolled out within two weeks it underwent several static fires. One involved firing up three times in one day. They have fixed the header tank problem to the best of their abilities. They had to switch engines but didn’t have but one week of delay. This is better than SN8 which took almost two months. This is expected to succeed today at around 12 p.m. and 6 p.m.
