SpaceX is targeting November 13 for Starship Flight 15, the first attempt to catch the upper stage Ship with the launch tower's mechanical arms while also recovering the Super Heavy booster at the same site. Booster 22 and Ship 42, both Block 3 vehicles, completed full-duration static fires in late October, confirming engine performance ahead of the mission. Elon Musk has described a successful ship catch as more likely than not, building on Flight 14's orbital demonstration and Starlink deployment. The FAA license remains the key near-term gate, with hardware otherwise prepared for a rapid reusability milestone that would mark the first full recovery of an orbital-class launch vehicle.
