USA: SpaceX unveils new Starship-based space flight seats

At Starbase in Texas, before the planned launch of the tenth test flight of Starship, experts and observers drew attention to the new crew seats, shown live for the first time. These elements have sparked discussions in the professional community: they can relate either to prototypes of the lunar lander HLS (Human Landing System), developed for the NASA Artemis program, or be part of the updated configuration of the Dragon capsule.

The appearance of seats was an additional signal about SpaceX's preparation for expanding the range of manned missions. The company sees Starship as a key tool not only for cargo transportation, but also for landing astronauts on the Moon, and in the future - for long-distance interplanetary expeditions.

Special attention is focused on SpaceX's ambitious plans to ensure a high frequency of launches. Earlier, the company announced its intention to increase the number of Starship launches to 24 per day during peak periods, which will require working out all elements, including ensuring the comfort and safety of the crew.

The launch of the tenth test flight of Starship, scheduled for August 25, was canceled a few minutes before launch due to problems with ground systems. Despite the delay, the program remains in the focus of the global space industry, and new details of the equipment indicate that SpaceX is gradually approaching the implementation of its large-scale projects.
