After Starhopper completed its tethered flights, the vehicle hopped to 20m and 150m in 2019, creating quite the spectacle.

In December 2020, a full Starship prototype took flight for the first time and though it ended in an explosion, SN8’s flight was a major success for SpaceX.
SN9, SN10 and SN11 also all went on to experience anomalies until SN15 nailed the landing in May 2021.
