Launch window: December 8, 1400 to 2300 UTC
Potential backup dates are on the 9th and 10th with identical windows.

Launch vehicle: SpaceX Starship Serial Number 8 (SN8)
>This Starship has three Raptor engines; SN36, SN39, SN42
Launch pad: Starship Launch Site, Boca Chica, Texas
Landing pad: Starship Landing Pad, Boca Chica, Texas
Payload: N/A
Hop parameters: Max altitude will be 12.5 kilometers. A horizontal 'flop' following apogee will occur, where the vehicle will then perform a powered flip to return upright for the soft landing. The landing pad is just a handful of meters from the launch pad.

Elon Musk on the likelihood of success: "Probably 1/3 chance of completing all mission objectives"

>This suborbital flight is designed to test a number of objectives, from how the vehicle’s three Raptor engines perform, and the overall aerodynamic entry capabilities of the vehicle, including its body flaps, to how the vehicle manages propellant transition. SN8 will also attempt to perform a landing flip maneuver, which would be a first for a vehicle of this size.
>With a test such as this, success is not measured by completion of specific objectives but rather how much we can learn as a whole, which will inform and improve the probability of success in the future as SpaceX rapidly advances development of Starship.

GODSPEED SN8!

There are two stages: emission following orgasm, almost instantly followed by a refractory period. The refractory period is the recovery phase after orgasm during which it is physiologically impossible for a man to have additional orgasms. In 1966, Masters and Johnson published pivotal research about the phases of sexual stimulation. Their work included women and men, and, unlike Alfred Kinsey in 1948 and 1953, tried to determine the physiological stages before and after orgasm.

Masters and Johnson argued that, in the first stage, "accessory organs contract and the male can feel the ejaculation coming; two to three seconds later the ejaculation occurs, which the man cannot constrain, delay, or in any way control" and that, in the second stage, "the male feels pleasurable contractions during ejaculation, reporting greater pleasure tied to a greater volume of ejaculate". They reported that, unlike females, "for the man, the resolution phase includes a superimposed refractory period" and added that "many males below the age of 30, but relatively few thereafter, have the ability to ejaculate frequently and are subject to only very short refractory periods during the resolution phase". Masters and Johnson equated male orgasm and ejaculation and maintained the necessity for a refractory period between orgasms.

ISP matters the most in space. In atmosphere you want thrust to get out of the gravity well ASAP. The problem with hydrogen 1st stages is that, while efficient, it takes them too long to get up and moving thanks to lower thrust so their efficiency is burned up my gravity and drag.

Even in space there are complicating factors. For instance- hydrogen has the hilarious ability to phase through solid metal, so if you're using it for any length of time you have to put on a bunch of insulation to keep it put, among other things. Rocketry is just a giant game a trade-offs. No one perfect solution.

Engines wind up and as every valve, pump and fuel/oxydizer/helium line is about to experience extreme stress some sensor somewhere senses that some value in one of the three engines is even slightly off from what the software expected.
So in the blink of an eye, before the engines can even light, the computer pulls the plug before the engines can even get going.
Maybe something was oversensitive, maybe someone forgot some testing code in the engine controller or maybe the engine would've blown up and killed the vehicle, not performed and killed the vehicle or failed to relight and killed the vehicle.

ISP is the rocket equivalent of miles per gallon. A Prius gets great mileage but it won't to a trailer up a mountain. Also it doesn't count the dry weight (tankage, etc.) that you need to add depending on your fuel type.
