Launch scheduled for Friday.
Wondering if Elon will blow up another one, call it good data, then get his dikk sucked by science media again.
EDIT: oh and spray the adjacent nature preserve with debris after he got a special build permit for his launch pad by promising it would never happen.

I won't mind if it blows up again. Their iterative build style is built into the process. Other rocket companies can sit back and learn from their mistakes and save on R&D. Win / Win.
As far as the concrete debris from the last one, the water deluge system was added to prevent that. We will see.

SpaceX has confirmed this Saturday as the target for the second flight test of Starship. Yesterday, news broke about a damaged grid fin actuator, which resulted in a destack and repair of the part. Starship is once again stacked and ready for flight.
