Joe Hansen(@joehansen):Starship Flight 15 is reportedly no earlier than 8 Nov, and Elon's goal this time is to catch the ship too. SpaceX is asking to go from 25 Starship launches a year at Starbase to as many as 456. Nobody builds 456 rockets a year. That number only works if both stages come back and fly again. The proposal also counts 912 landings a year, about two for every launch. The FAA has only started its review. Nothing is approved yet.
