SpaceX is now officially preparing to catch both Super Heavy and Starship on the same mission
Flight 15 is targeting launch as early as Friday, November 13, pending regulatory approval…..with both stages planned to return to Starbase for tower catches
Super Heavy will attempt its return minutes after liftoff, marking the first catch attempt for a V3 booster
Starship will deploy 26 Starlink V3 satellites and spend more than 22 hours in orbit. If its reentry and landing systems are confirmed healthy, it will then return to Starbase for the ship’s first tower-catch attempt
Launching the entire system is one challenge. Bringing both stages home ready for reuse is another
Flight 15 is going to bring SpaceX a major step closer to full and rapid reusability
