TL;DR Summary
A Maxar satellite captured an image of SpaceX's Starship and Super Heavy rocket fully fueled on its Texan pad from orbit ahead of its orbital debut, now scheduled for April 20. The launch was scrubbed on April 17 due to a launch issue. Once launched, it will be the first flight ever for a fully stacked Starship and Super Heavy combination, which SpaceX plans to bring to the moon to support NASA's Artemis program and eventually to Mars for human settlement efforts.
