Starship flight test 7 will be the seventh flight test of a SpaceX Starship launch vehicle. The prototype vehicles expected to be flown are Ship 33, the first Block 2 upper stage, and Booster 14, a Block 1 vehicle.

According to documents filed with the Federal Aviation Administration, Flight 7 is targeted to occur in the early morning hours of January 11, 2025, so that a NASA aircraft can capture thermal imagery of the Starship's re-entry in the Indian Ocean.
