SpaceX Starship Flight 15 Targets Historic Double Tower Catch
Flight 15 lifts off from Texas with a 75-minute window starting at 4:45 p.m. CT, using Ship 42 atop Booster 22. If all goes well, the booster returns for a tower catch just six and a half minutes after launch, while the ship orbits for over 22 hours, deploys Starlink satellites, and aims for its own catch. The mission pushes toward rapid reusability despite a separate nationwide FAA ground stop on airport flights due to a communications issue.
