(Reuters) – SpaceX may attempt a Starship rocket system launch in March, its billionaire chief Elon Musk said in a tweet on Saturday.

“If remaining tests go well, we will attempt a Starship launch next month,” Musk said, in a response to a user’s tweet about Starship.

Musk had in January said that there was a “real shot” at launching Starship in late February, adding that a March launch attempt appears highly likely.
