Lacey(@LaceyPresley):FLIGHT 14 TARGETS END OF AUGUST First Starship to put operational Starlink V3 into orbit + attempt a ship catch. That single flight advances the entire stack: • Real payload delivery (not just tests) • Higher-load reusability data • The mass cadence required for 100 GW+ orbital solar AI compute From the earnings call: Capex is already directed at AI + Starship. Short-term numbers can absorb hits. The 5–10+ year objective remains Moon and Mars bases. This is how “imagine Mars” becomes engineering reality.
