Mission objective
Official SpaceX Mission Objective diagram
SpaceX intends to launch the full stack Booster 7/Starship 24 from Orbital Launch Mount A, igniting all 33 Raptor engines of the Super Heavy booster.
2 minutes and 53 seconds after launch the engines will shut down and Starship will separate from Superheavy.
Superheavy will perform a boostback burn and a landing burn to hopefully land softly on water in the gulf of Mexico. In this flight SpaceX aren't going to attempt to catch the booster using the Launch tower.
Starship will ignite its engine util it almost reaches orbit. After SECO it will coast and almost complete an orbit. Starship will reenter and perform a splashdown at terminal velocity in the pacific ocean.
Remember everyone, this is a test flight so even if some flight objectives won't be met, this would still be a success. Just launching would be an amazing feat, clearing the tower and not destroying Stage 0 is an important objective as well.
To steal a phrase from the FH's test flight thread...
