Video of test firingSpaceX has just static fired Booster 14-2, a flight-proven booster.

It previously flew on Flight 7 and is now expected to fly on Flight 9. This is a major step towards booster reusability.

From what I'm hearing, all 33 engines fired. 28 engines are reused from the previous flight of this booster, only 5 are new.

​​​​​​​Great work by the Booster team!
