Federal regulators gave SpaceX the green light for another test flight of Starship, the most powerful launch vehicle ever constructed, after mishaps earlier this year rained debris near populated islands.

The Federal Aviation Administration has approved the launch of SpaceX's Starship 9 after two explosions idled the program for months.

Starship exploded during its last two tests, but SpaceX has "satisfactorily addressed" the causes of its last mishap.
