NASASpaceflight reports that hardware for Starship Flight 15 is approaching static-fire testing, while follow-on candidate Booster 23 has completed cryogenic testing. Catching both the booster and upper stage during Flight 15 remains a goal. The report also suggests Flight 16 could be prepared at Florida’s Launch Complex 39A, but vehicle transport and integrated testing of the new launch site remain outstanding. November and December schedules are provisional, and whether to immediately reuse recovered hardware or deploy new vehicles has not been settled.
