This was arguably SpaceX's most successful Starship test flight to date. The only flight with a similar claim occurred one year ago Monday, when the company caught the rocket's Super Heavy booster back at the launch pad after soaring to the uppermost fringes of the atmosphere.

In an 11th successful Starship launch and splashdown, SpaceX inched closer to many of its longterm goals on the Moon and Mars.

Space Coast Office of Tourism data shows overnight visitors who primarily travel to Brevard County to see a launch spend an average of $231 per day.
