SpaceX is targeting Starship Flight 15 NET Friday, November 13, 2026 at 4:45 p.m. CT (22:45 UTC), with a 75-minute window. This will be the FIRST attempt to catch both stages of Starship, with Ship 42 and Booster 22, carrying 26 Starlink V3 satellites on a roughly 22.5-hour mission of about 14 orbits at around 275 km. Booster 22 will return to the tower for the first-ever catch of a V3 Super Heavy about 6.5 minutes after liftoff. If all goes well Ship 42 will come back to Starbase for the first-ever Ship catch around 3:17 p.m. CT on Saturday, which would make it the first fully recovered orbital rocket in history and a huge step toward rapid, full reuse. We will have a separate livestream for ship catch here - https://youtube.com/live/AQFrpZaOpcQ?feature=share Want to know why Starship's V3 Booster only has 3 grid fins instead of 4?
