The enormous Starship rocket, set for launch today, can carry ten times the payload of SpaceX's Falcon 9 rockets.
SpaceX's Starship — the largest and most powerful rocket ever built — is about to blast off in the biggest rocket launch in history, and you can watch the live stream here.
Why is it important?The flight is the first test of the rocket system that SpaceX has said it will use to transport astronauts, spacecraft, satellites and cargo to locations in the solar system — both for its own purposes and on behalf of NASA. The U.S. space agency is slated to use Starship's Human Landing System for the Artemis 3 and 4 missions, transporting humans to the moon's surface for the first time since 1972.
You can watch the official livestream on this page as soon as it becomes available. In the meantime, a NASASpaceflight livestream is covering the build up to the launch.
