Booster 9 launched with Ship 25 on the Second Integrated Flight Test on Nov 18, 2023. During the first stage firing, all 33 engines were fired full duration. Starship and Super Heavy passed through hot staging, but the booster was lost shortly after initiating its flip maneuver and boostback burn. The Starship second stage had its flight termination system activated around the time of engine cutoff, after having continued powered flight until more than eight minutes after launch and reaching over 80 percent of orbital speed.
