The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has granted SpaceX a launch license modification for the upcoming Starship Flight 7, expected to occur in January 2025. This authorization allows SpaceX to proceed with multiple missions using the Starship/Super Heavy vehicle under the Flight 7 mission profile and vehicle configuration. The FAA's decision, which comes well ahead of the projected launch date, reflects their commitment to safe space transportation. The flight profile for Flight 7 appears similar to that of Flight 6, but it will utilize the upgraded second-generation Starship.
