SpaceX has scrubbed a highly anticipated test flight of its behemoth Starship, hours after the company’s billionaire founder Elon Musk sought to lower expectations surrounding the launch.The California-based company announced in a live webcast during the final minutes of the countdown on Monday that it was cancelling the test for at least 48 hours. It cited a pressurization issue in the lower-stage rocket booster, known as the Super Heavy booster.The cancellation left the spacecraft sitting on the launch pad in Boca Chica, Texas, the US, its stainless steel body stretching into the sky. The overall launch vessel is 120 metres (394 feet) tall, higher than New York City’s Statue of Liberty.
