On Sep 28 , 2019 SpaceX Elon Musk gave a presentation in Boca Chica, Texas, on the development of his new rocket, the Starship. The test rocket in Boca Chica is version Mk1, while the Mk2 version is in Florida.

Mk1 is 9 meters in diameter and 50 metes tall and has three Raptor engines. On Nov 20, 2019, the Starship prototype was partially destroyed during a pressure tank testing, propelling its bulkhead upwards hundreds of feet away from the rocket. The Mk1 is considered retired after this incident and the work in Florida was stopped due to this. Now the MK1 will pave way to Starship Serial Number configurations.
