President-elect Donald Trump is set to attend the SpaceX Starship launch. This launch might be a critical moment for space travel.

President-elect Donald Trump appears to be planning to attend a SpaceX “Starship” rocket launch on Tuesday, in the latest indication of founder Elon Musk’s influence in the Republican’s orbit.

The latest flight test comes roughly a month after the Super Heavy booster was successfully caught by two robotic arms and returned to the launch site during the Starship's fifth flight test. The sixth flight test hopes to build on that momentum with upgrades made to both hardware and software controls.
