SpaceX’s Starship Just Did Something for Only the 2nd Time. Saturday Could Be Even Bigger.

• Starship Flight 15 launched Nov. 13; booster splashed down but upper stage reached orbit. • Payload of 26 Starlink satellites is being deployed; catch attempt planned for tomorrow. • Success would boost SpaceX's reusable rocket goals, aiding Starlink and launch growth. Starship Flight 15 launched from Texas Nov. 13. The Super Heavy booster splashed down in the Gulf of Mexico after a failed catch, but the upper stage reached orbit and deployed 26 Starlink satellites. A catch attempt for the upper stage is scheduled for Nov. 14. Achieving full reusability would cut costs and expand SpaceX's launch and Starlink businesses. The company aims for full Starship capability by late 2027.
