马斯克还在追逐火星移民的梦想。 北京时间8月27日，星舰第十次综合飞行测试（简称"十飞"）成功进行，飞行测试原定8月25日进行，由于地面系统故障、天气原因等后延了两 天。 本次飞行由第二代星舰S37+B16助推器组成的组合体执行。除了测试飞船和助推器的性能、可靠性测试外，星舰"十飞"的重要看点之一，即执 行此前因发射失利未能完成的"星链卫星模拟器"部署任务。 需要注意，本次飞行不涉及助推器和飞船的回收。 "十飞"是星舰年内第四次飞行测试，前三次均以失败告终，且任务都比较接近，这是"快速迭代验证"的典型特征，但过去几次持续卡在特定任 务上，也反映出这种思路——靠真实发射验证来定位问题的模式——存在局限性。此外，同类型任务的反复测试验证，也在不断地推高发射成 本。 现在，星舰的迭代节奏，远远追不上马斯克希望带领人类走向星辰大海的时间预期。 而载人的前提，是保证高度稳定、可靠的重复飞行能力，而在这之前，更前置的条件是至少保证具备有效载荷部署、飞船回收的能力。 01 星舰"十飞"看点，助推器不回收，飞船部署"卫星" 星舰"十飞"从发射到S37飞船溅落印度洋，预计用时1小时06分钟。 飞行测试过程中，S37飞船会执行有 ...

Core Viewpoint - SpaceX's ninth Starship flight was a significant step forward despite not achieving a complete success, marking the highest and farthest flight of the year so far, with the booster successfully launching but the spacecraft ultimately losing control and crashing [3][26]. Group 1: Flight Performance - The ninth flight utilized a reused super heavy booster from an earlier test, aiming to demonstrate the feasibility of reusing rockets without manual intervention [9]. - The booster successfully completed its launch phase, separating from the spacecraft at 2 minutes and 30 seconds, but did not attempt recovery, instead performing a hard landing in the Gulf of Mexico [14]. - The spacecraft reached a height and successfully shut down its engines for a glide phase, a critical milestone that had previously led to failures in earlier flights [18]. Group 2: Challenges and Failures - The spacecraft encountered multiple issues, including a failure to open the payload bay doors to deploy eight Starlink satellite simulators, which were intended to test the spacecraft's ability to deliver functional cargo to orbit [19][21]. - At approximately 33 minutes into the flight, the spacecraft lost attitude control, leading to a complete loss of control and an expected disintegration upon re-entry into the atmosphere [22][23][24]. - The flight concluded with SpaceX confirming the loss of contact with the spacecraft, which was anticipated to burn up in the atmosphere and fall into the ocean [25]. Group 3: Future Plans and Goals - SpaceX is under pressure to achieve a successful Mars mission by 2026, with the goal of launching an unmanned Starship next year, necessitating the completion of ten successful test flights [28][30]. - In addition to the Mars mission, SpaceX is also focused on a lower-priority task in collaboration with NASA for a manned lunar landing in 2027 [31]. - The company has increased manpower and infrastructure investments at its headquarters, Starbase, to facilitate testing and development for upcoming missions [33]. Group 4: Learning from Failures - SpaceX emphasizes the importance of learning from failures, with engineers aiming to extract lessons from each unsuccessful flight to improve future designs and operations [35]. - Despite not meeting the ambitious goal of 25 launches in a year, the company has completed three launches in less than six months, indicating a faster pace of development [36]. - Following the ninth flight, plans for subsequent test flights will be more frequent, with launches expected every 3 to 4 weeks [37].

同时，尝试对飞船等部分"减配"和设计改进，优化提升载荷能力，在降本的同时，扩大投送能力和潜在商业价 值，并通过飞行测试数据和结果，验证这种"减配"思路对稳定性、可靠性的影响。 "星舰"火箭总长约120米，直径约9米，由两部分组成，第一级是长约70米的火箭助推器，第二级是"星 舰"飞船，两级均设计为可重复使用。该火箭的设计目标是将人和货物送至地球轨道、月球乃至火星。 在今年1月和3月进行的"星舰"第七次和第八次试飞中，火箭第一级助推器均成功实现发射塔"筷子夹火 箭"回收，但第二级飞船都在上升期间快速解体。 当地时间5月27日，美国太空探索技术公司新一代重型运载火箭"星舰"从得克萨斯州发射升空，进行第九次 试飞。火箭第一级助推器发生爆炸，火箭第二级飞船虽进入太空，但随后失控。 太空探索技术公司直播画面显示，发射数分钟后，首次重复使用的"超级重型"助推器与飞船成功分离。助推器 随后发生爆炸，未能按计划溅落在墨西哥湾。飞船虽进入太空，但也未能按计划部署模拟卫星，且出现燃料泄 漏。 太空探索技术公司已确认失去对飞船的控制，预计其残骸将落入印度洋水域。 另外，根据报道，本次发射使用的B14.2助推器实现成功复用，但在着陆 ...
