But in a first, SpaceX will also attempt to return the rocket&#8217;s massive Super Heavy booster, which is powered by 33 Raptor engines, back to its launch pad. There, SpaceX will attempt to catch the booster in the &#8220;chopsticks&#8221; of its massive Mechazilla launch pad structure.

Meanwhile, SpaceX is also facing potential fines from the FAA amounting to $633,000 related to Falcon 9 rocket launches. SpaceX has bristled at both the Flight 5 Starship delays and the potential fines, threatening to sue the FAA on the latter issue.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We find ourselves delayed for unreasonable and exasperating reasons,&#8221; SpaceX <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spacex.com\/updates\/#starships-fly\">wrote in a blog post<\/a> on Sept. 10. &#8220;Unfortunately, we continue to be stuck in a reality where it takes longer to do the government paperwork to license a\u00a0<a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.space.com\/29295-rocket-history.html\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.space.com\/29295-rocket-history.html\">rocket<\/a>\u00a0launch than it does to design and build the actual hardware.
