SpaceX Targets September 22 for Starship Flight 14 and First Orbital Attempt

SpaceX announced that Starship Flight 14 could launch as soon as September 22, marking the vehicle's first attempt to enter Earth orbit.
The nearly 10-hour mission is expected to complete approximately six orbits before executing a splashdown in the Pacific Ocean west of Chile.
During the flight, Starship will deploy 26 Starlink V3 satellites to add roughly 26Tbps of network capacity while testing new heatshield upgrades and a deorbit burn.
