Starship Orbital Flight 1 (Starship Flight 14)
Ship 41 underwent two cryogenic proof tests on June 30, 2026. Booster 21 also underwent its own cryogenic proof tests from July 18-20, 2026. The engines' static firing test campaign started on August 19, 2026. After 13 suborbital test flights, this might be the first orbital flight of Starship (previously code-named BFR and ITS). According to Elon Musk, this would also be the first catch of a Ship.
