Launch Starship Flight 14

NET Sep 15 — the 14th test flight of the two-stage Starship launch vehicle. This will be the 3rd flight of Starship V3, Ship 41 (upper stage) paired with Booster 21 (Super Heavy first stage). Both Booster 21 and Ship 41 are brand-new, freshly manufactured hardware making their maiden flights

Ship 41 is equipped with a functional payload door. SpaceX plans to deploy roughly 20 operational next-generation Starlink V3 satellites (weighing about 38 metric tons) live in orbit, transitioning the platform into active commercial service.

Following up on earlier successes, Booster 21 will attempt to return directly to Starbase to be captured by the “Mechazilla” launch tower chopstick arms.
