Starship’s 14th flight is set to launch on Monday, Sept 28. The 75-minute launch window opens at 7:15 a.m. CT. Live coverage of the mission starts ~35 minutes before launch → https://t.co/uQKQvgaTmJ
Sunrise at Starbase. Opportunistic full stack testing is planned ahead of Flight 14's launch, which is on track for Monday, Sept. 28, pending regulatory approval
Starship is preparing to go to orbit. Flight 14 is targeting to launch as early as Tuesday, September 22, pending regulatory approval → https://t.co/LwJ4g6dg9v
Super heavy booster 22 cryo proof testing at Starbase TX Massey's test site today. Starship 42 has also returned for additional testing. This is the ship and booster for Starship flight 15.

Falcon Heavy sent Psyche toward a metal-rich asteroid, Europa Clipper to Jupiter’s Moon, and GOES-U into transfer orbit to improve NOAA’s weather forecasting. Falcon 9 launched NASA’s PACE mission to study Earth’s ocean and atmosphere and SPHEREx to map the history of the universe. The Falcon family has enabled NASA to reach farther and explore more of the universe, and missions like Roman continue that work
Road and area closures begin at 10:15 AM today for a Booster 21 engine test. The test is expected between noon and 1 PM.
You may hear a low rumbling and feel some vibration for a few minutes at most. That is normal and expected. The test is controlled and safe for the public.
Please stay clear of closed areas until testing is complete.
Thank you.
SpaceX engineers spent several days inspecting Ship 40 in the waters off Christmas Island. They collected heatshield samples and gained vital insight into how the vehicle handled reentry with improvements now planned on future vehicles
Introducing Starbase, Louisiana – a high-cadence launch site that will enable Starship to open a pathway to the stars for humanity.
Thank you to @LAGovJeffLandry and the great people of Louisiana for all of their support as we work together on this audacious project → https://t.co/zGKVOGSxfW
This morning’s @SpaceX mission from pad 40 was the last planned Falcon 9 Starlink launch from Florida (and it launched on the fleet leading booster!!), marking the end of an era for these launches on the East Coast. From here on, Starlink missions out of Florida will fly on Starship. The West Coast team will continue regularly launching Starlink from Vandenberg.
Super proud of this incredible team. You’ve made Falcon 9 the most reliable launch vehicle in history. You also helped build the largest low-Earth orbit satellite constellation providing connectivity to millions around the world, and you’ve set the foundation for what’s next.
In the last seven years, Falcon has flown ~260 Starlink missions from the Cape… can’t wait until we launch that and many more with Starship!
After approx. 24 days at sea, the SpaceX Recovery team successfully guided Starship to a location just off the coast of Christmas Island. A team of SpaceX engineers is on their way to conduct additional analysis on the vehicle in calmer waters before attempting to return it to Starbase
