SpaceX's New Starship V3 COPV & Upgrades to Avoid Explosion in Flight 12 REVEALED...
Just like SpaceX’s philosophy: “Fail fast, learn fast!”
About a month ago, Booster 18 suffered a serious failure at Massey’s Site. And in a remarkably short time, SpaceX applied upgrades to Booster 19, not only fixing the issues but also transforming it into the safest, most efficient, and most powerful Super Heavy Version 3 ever built.
So what exactly was upgraded?
Let’s break it down in today’s episode of Alpha Tech.

NASA’s new chief, Jared Isaacman, hasn’t even been in the role for long, and he’s already energized the entire space community. In a recent post on X, he said: “We are going to build a Moon base.”
That statement strongly hints that NASA may push harder, and provide more support for SpaceX’s Starship program. And it makes sense. Starship is currently the only vehicle capable of delivering hundreds of tons of material to the Moon, which is exactly what you’d need to build a permanent lunar base.
That’s also why Elon Musk looked genuinely excited. He replied with a simple “Awesome.” Just one word, but it was enough to give the community renewed confidence in this bold, long-held dream.

And that confidence isn’t unfounded at all. Just last week, while many of us were counting down the final hours to Christmas, SpaceX, right on schedule, completed the full stack of a Version 3 Super Heavy booster preparing for flight: Booster 19. And they did it in just 28 days, setting a new record for the Starship program.
To put that into perspective, Booster 18 took 175 days to reach the same stage. And despite all that time, it ultimately suffered a serious rupture at Massey’s Site. SpaceX has yet to release the full, official investigation results, but the community, and several reliable sources, strongly suspect the cause was a COPV failure.
So what’s the clearest piece of evidence?
