SpaceX完成了该公司迄今最大规模的打捞行动，从印度洋圣诞岛附近成功回收了7月24日从德州Starbase发射的Starship火箭1。这次发射是Starship的第13次全面测试飞行，也是该火箭历史上首次在空间飞行中幸存并保持完整1。
SpaceX正在将Starship运回德州总部，整个运输过程预计耗时数月1。SpaceX声明表示，向整个回收团队致敬，他们在挑战性条件下坚持不懈，为工程师们获取了大量数据以继续快速推进Starship的开发1。Starship旨在运送人员和设备前往火星，并在未来用于月球任务1。NASA计划利用Starship和蓝月亮着陆器在2028年前让宇航员返回月球1。
SpaceX has successfully recovered its Starship rocket from the Indian Ocean following the vehicle's launch on July 24, 2024, from Starbase in Texas 1. This recovery marks a significant milestone, as it was the 13th full test flight of Starship and the first time the vehicle has survived a flight intact 1. The spacecraft, which was retrieved near Christmas Island, will now be transported back to SpaceX's Texas headquarters, a process expected to take several months 1.
The recovery operation represents the company's largest salvage effort to date. SpaceX released a statement recognizing the achievement: "Congratulations to the entire SpaceX Recovery team for battling through challenging conditions to give our engineers access to a wealth of data to continue rapidly developing Starship" 1. The data collected from this flight will be instrumental in advancing Starship's development as SpaceX works toward its ultimate goal of deploying the vehicle to transport personnel and equipment to Mars, with additional applications planned for lunar missions 1. NASA intends to utilize Starship, alongside the Blue Moon lander, to return astronauts to the Moon before 2028 1.
