Starship just loaded ship and booster with liquid oxygen and liquid methane in about 30 minutes, reportedly faster than a Falcon 9! But fueling isn't the limit. Turnaround is. Larry @TeslaLarry breaks down the reported schedule. Flight 15 is targeting Oct. 19 and Flight 16 is targeting Oct. 30, carrying Starlink 30-1 with possibly up to 60 V3 satellites. That's an 11-day gap between flights. Getting to one flight per day would mean compressing it by about 11x. Pad refurbishment, booster reflight, and range availability are where that gets decided. If Oct. 30 holds, Starship stops being a test vehicle and becomes a revenue-generating launch system. $SPCX

Starship's first orbital flight is getting close! @SpaceX has rolled Super Heavy out to the launch pad, with Flight 14 targeted for September 28. The plan is ambitious: deploy 26 next-generation Starlink V3 satellites, complete roughly six orbits of Earth, then return for a Pacific splashdown about 10 hours after launch. I'm really excited for this one. Seeing Starship reach orbit and deliver working satellites would be a huge milestone after years of development and testing. Can't wait to watch it fly!
