Last week, Musk predicted that the SpaceX heavy-duty launch vehicle would be launched this week, and said that the probability of successful launch was 50%. I thought he was modest, but I didn’t expect to give us a shot.
Last night, the starship announced that it would postpone the launch 40 seconds before the test flight. The reason for the cancellation was that there was a problem with the pressurization system of the super-heavy booster, specifically, the pressure valve was frozen, so the launch plan was temporarily cancelled.
The next launch will have to wait at least 48 hours. This morning, SpaceX announced that it will conduct a flight test two days later, that is, on the morning of April 20, EST.
According to the original plan, three minutes after liftoff, the starship will separate from the booster rocket, fly about 150 kilometers above the surface, and finally splash down near Hawaii.
SpaceX is so cautious, because before the starship, SN8 crashed hard in the test, and the original intention of the starship design is to achieve multiple recycling, which will greatly reduce the cost of rocket launch, so before the starship is successfully launched, all caution is worthwhile.

Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google, expressed his concern about the rapid development of artificial intelligence and its potential threat to society in the CBS program "60 Minutes".
"I always think that AI (artificial intelligence) is the most profound technology that human beings are studying, which is deeper than fire, electricity or anything we have done in the past."
Pichai believes that society needs to adapt to new technologies, and all walks of life may be affected, and artificial intelligence may subvert the work of "knowledge workers." He emphasized the risks of generative artificial intelligence, such as deep forgery of videos, called for supervision, and pointed out that those who made these videos must bear the consequences.
New technology will affect every product of every company. Take radiologists as an example. In the next five to ten years, artificial intelligence may become their assistant to help with priority tasks.
He emphasized the necessity of supervision, saying that anyone who has worked with artificial intelligence will realize that it is so different and profound that we need social regulations to think about how to adapt.
He also mentioned that Google’s AI technology was used in a harmful way, which made him sleepless at night.
