Starship launch delayed by ground issue; Firefly expands Texas operations
Image: primary SpaceX nearly launched its Starship rocket on Thursday from South Texas but was halted by a ground system issue. The company plans to attempt the launch again as soon as Friday evening.
In a separate development, Firefly Aerospace announced it has expanded its Central Texas campus with new headquarters, cleanroom space, and an innovation lab. The move doubles its spacecraft production facilities to 144,000 square feet.
The expansions support Firefly's goal of scaling from development to volume production of space vehicles.
