SpaceX is targeting Friday, Nov. 13 for Starship Flight 15, with a 75-minute window opening at 5:45 p.m. ET (2:45 p.m. PT), and plans to try catching both the Super Heavy booster and, for the first time, the Starship upper stage at Starbase, Space.com reported. SpaceX said the ship is expected to make about 14 orbits at roughly 275 km over a flight of more than 22 hours and deploy 26 Starlink V3 satellites, with options to abort to an ocean landing. USA Today said SpaceX announced the date Saturday, Nov. 7, and has caught the booster three times since October 2024 but never the ship.
