SpaceX is targeting a May 19 launch for the 12th Starship test flight from their city of Starbase, according to a news release.

The rocket will launch from a newly designed pad at Starbase. The flight will also be the debut of the next-generation Starship and Super Heavy vehicles, powered by the next evolution of the Raptor engine, SpaceX announced.

The launch window will open at 5:30 p.m.

As part of the flight test, SpaceX will establish a safety zone perimeter in coordination with local law enforcement. That will include temporary closures of Highway 4 and Boca Chica Beach.
