Stunning footage shows #Starship# #Flight14# deploying one of its twenty-six V3 #Starlink# satellites in orbit, bringing an earlier animation to life in a never-before-seen view. Video edited using footage owned by #SpaceX#.

All 15 Starship Launches Flight 1: Apr 20 2023 Flight 2: Nov 18 2023 Flight 3: Mar 14 2024 Flight 4: Jun 6 2024 Flight 5: Oct 13 2024 Flight 6: Nov 19 2024 Flight 7: Jan 16 2025 Flight 8: Mar 6 2025 Flight 9: May 27 2025 Flight 10: Aug 26 2025 Flight 11: Oct 13 2025 Flight 12: May 22 2026 Flight 13: Jul 24 2026 Flight 14: Sep 28 2026 Flight 15: Nov 13 2026

The first three V3 liftoffs. Flights 12, 13 and 14 leave Pad 2 at Starbase in one frame, from ignition to the climb. These are the first Block 3 Starships, and the first to fly on Raptor 3. Flight 12 opened the series on May 22 with Booster 19 and Ship 39. Flight 13 followed on July 24 with Booster 20 and Ship 40. Flight 14, on September 28 with Booster 21 and Ship 41, was the first of the three to reach orbit.

SpaceX launched five missions in the last six days. • Sep 26 — USSF-385, Falcon 9 • Sep 28 — Starship Flight 14 • Oct 1 — Crew-13, Falcon 9 • Oct 1 — Transporter-18, Falcon 9 • Oct 1 — NROL-97, Falcon Heavy Three of them launched in less than 13 hours.

I find it funny that some people got hung up on Starship not having gone orbital before Flight 14 when in the grand scheme of things it was completely arbitrary in terms of performance. The 19ish second burn only added about 91 m/s of velocity (a 1.2% increase in velocity) This capability has been physically capable since Flight 6 which demonstrated a single Raptor relight in space. Heck, Flight 13’s burn was about 14 seconds, but intentionally oriented to primarily do a plane change instead of a prograde insertion burn for continued safety. Any of the relights COULD have done the orbital insertion burn, the duration was not of any special technical capability. The reason Starship didn’t go orbital until Flight 14 is probably what we should applaud them for the most… SAFETY. Their methodical approach to getting good data and going one step at a time while hucking the single most massive object ever put into space proves they weren’t just doing things haphazardly, despite the occasional narrative from the outside. While it’s easy to compare Starship to vehicles like SLS or Vulcan or New Glenn, the reality is the focus hasn’t been on orbit, it’s been all on the “downhill” side of that. Safe and targeted de-orbit, clean reentry, targeted and soft splashdown. That’s the part that has (almost) never been done before. And here I do have to add a little Space Shuttle admiration for figuring out a lot of these things on its first flight in 1981 (although it came a bit close to not being successful). Pretty amazing there was a vehicle of similar scale capable of such precise deorbit and reentry that it landed on a runway with no go-around capabilities. Crazy. But Starship is well on a path to absolutely leap-frog the Space Shuttle in terms of performance (already over double and someday 6 fold) and hopefully in terms of full and rapid reuse. I hope we see the latter part speed up even more now that orbit has been demonstrated. Exciting times ahead!!! Keep going @spacex @elonmusk
