Launch window opens at 5:30 pm local time ( 2330 GMT ) Thursday for SpaceX's next test flight of its massive rocket.

Rocket will launch from SpaceX's Starbase facility in Boca Chica , Texas , in a launch window.

It will be Starship 's eighth orbital mission -- all so far uncrewed -- and the first since its dramatic mid-air explosion over the Caribbean during its last trial.

Starship is designed to eventually be fully reusable and is key to Musk 's vision of colonizing Mars .
