SpaceX started testing the integrated Starship (the ship mounted on the giant booster) two years ago, April of 2023. Test flight #8 took place two months ago, so that's eight test flights in two years.
Things are going to get a lot busier. SpaceX asked the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for permission to launch 25 test flights this year, and FAA just issued its approval.
Starbase, the SpaceX launch site, will soon officially be a city: Starbase, TX.
