Recent Starship Flight 13 successes in July 2026, including an intact V3 upper-stage splashdown with the first undamaged heat-shield data, successful Starlink V3 deployment, and in-space Raptor relight, have reinforced trader confidence in rapid progress toward full reusability. Consecutive Super Heavy booster tower catches earlier in 2026, combined with Elon Musk’s August statements targeting a ship tower catch on the next flight and the first upper-stage reflight by late 2026 or early 2027, anchor the 68.5% implied probability for achieving both-stage reuse before 2028. V3’s Raptor 3 engines and redesigned thermal protection address prior hurdles, though experts note the heat shield must still prove rapid-turnaround durability. Upcoming integrated tests and potential orbital refueling demos remain key near-term catalysts.
