SpaceX took off Starship Flight 13 on July 25 2026 from Boca Chica, Texas.
The rocket’s upper stage and booster completed a smooth separation during ascent.
Both stages later achieved soft splashdowns, first in the Gulf of Mexico and the other in the Indian Ocean.
Engineers described the sea touchdowns as the most gentle ever.
A earlier rocket engine issue forced a previous abort on July 24.
The private firm additionally deployed new-generation Starlink satellites as payload for the test mission.
