SpaceX's Starship S30 faced some problems during the static fire test, causing a delay. Even though they were well-prepared and tried multiple times, the test didn't go as planned. The first attempt showed there might be a problem with the fuel pipe during the fuel loading process. But SpaceX quickly sorted out and tried again later in the day.

Yesterday, SpaceX successfully did the static fire test for Starship S30. After the initial problems, the team probably did a lot of testing and troubleshooting to fix any issues. Yesterday morning, SpaceX warned residents about the scheduled static fire. Around 11am, they started loading fuel, and frost lines showed that fuel was present. Then, around 11:30, they started the engine chill process, with venting at the leg of the test stand showing that they were getting ready to activate the engine. Finally, around 11:58, ship 30 fired its engines for about 8 seconds. SpaceX later confirmed that it was a 6-engine static fire test. The successful test shows that SpaceX was able to fix the problems from 1st attempt.
