Prolific rocket launch firm aims to expand Starship operations beyond Texas, which launched its first seven test flights.

Though Starship is still in development and has yet to complete a successful orbital flight, SpaceX still seems confident in moving forward. The company’s goal of a Florida launch in 2025 is aggressive – the Starship program is in its early stages – but SpaceX has a history of achieving daunting milestones against the odds.

Elon Musk's SpaceX has been looking to build new Starship launchpads near its primary launch sites in Florida, as it works in Texas on early development and testing of the next-generation rocket designed to loft bigger loads of satellites into space and put humans on the moon later this decade.
