Launch window: January 25, ~12:00-6:00 PM CST (6:00-12:00 UTC)
Today's attempt is expected later in the window due to weather.
There are backup windows on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Launch vehicle: SpaceX Starship Serial Number 9 (SN9)
Launch pad: Starship Launch Site, Boca Chica, Texas
Landing pad: Starship Landing Pad, Boca Chica, Texas
Hop parameters: Max altitude will be 12.5 kilometers. A horizontal 'flop' following apogee will occur. Right before landing, the vehicle will perform a powered flip to return upright. Engines are expected to be turned off gradually on ascent.

This is the first flight of SN9, and the second flight of a Starship prototype with aerodynamic surfaces and a nose cone. It is unknown if the flight parameters will be different compared to SN8 (watch here: https://youtu.be/ap-BkkrRg-o?t=6462)
