Super Heavy will also use Raptor 3 engines and perform an ocean landing in the Gulf of Mexico. It will have an integrated vented interstage/forward dome, three grid fins instead of the prior four, as well as the use of the grid fins as catch points. The booster/ship combination is designated as B20/S40, both of the Block 3 variant. - Delayed from mid-July. Webcast: https://www.spacex.com/launches/starship-flight-13
