  1. Why doesn’t the second launch of starship include reignition of the second stage engines prior to landing? Is SpaceX worried that the heat shield is not going to work? Remember, if SpaceX cannot make the heat shield approach, they are currently using work, a major redesign of starship will be required for a new Type of heat shield or approach to landing starship. The fact that SpaceX is not testing the heat shield by trying to reignite the second stage engines prior to landing is worrisome.
