Once again, as Starship was on the launch pad being prepared for takeoff, SpaceX opted for another 24-hour delay – this time due to poor weather.

The launch from Starbase in southern Texas was called off with just 40 seconds on the clock. The clock had been held at 40 seconds due to an anvil cloud in the area that had to clear in a certain timeframe. Having failed to move far enough away from the site, SpaceX scrubbed what would have been the Starship rocket’s 10th test flight.

Elon Musk's SpaceX postponed the 10th launch of its Starship rocket due to cloudy weather in Texas on Monday, another slight delay in its efforts to overcome development setbacks and achieve several long-sought milestones essential to the Mars rocket system's reusable design.
