Launched late in the day on May 5, 2021 into a dense low cloud ceiling, SN15 was finally able to accomplish what none of its predecessors were able to; complete the entire 10km test flight regimen and stick the soft rocket propulsive landing without blowing up.
SN15 incorporated many improvements following the prior launch and mid-air destruction of its predecessor, SN11. Specifically, the SpaceX team noted the following: "SN15 has vehicle improvements across structures, avionics and software, and the engines that will allow more speed and efficiency throughout production and flight: specifically, a new enhanced avionics suite, updated propellant architecture in the aft skirt, and a new Raptor engine design and configuration."
Starship is the proposed second-stage of a fully reusable earth to orbit launch system that would significantly reduce the high cost of orbital launches and enable the eventual settlement of Mars.
The Starship is itself only a second stage. It is to be launched above a Starship Heavy Booster. As envisioned, the Heavy Booster will return to earth and land vertically in the manner of current SpaceX's Falcon 9 rockets. The second stage Starship however, will be able to reach orbit with sufficient fuel to deorbit and reland using a novel aerobraking mechanism whereby it reorients into a horizontal inclination during atmospheric reentry with the use of its four flaps, raptor engines and cold gas thrusters. Just prior to landing, it reverts to a vertical orientation, reignite its engines at the final moment to decelerate to touch down vertically.
