SpaceX Just Got a HUGE Starship Launch Approval Update! 🤯
Marcus House
Yet another week of fascinating twists and updates around all things Starship. Not just the Pad demolition continuing, and the new launch site getting ever closer to being finished off, we now have Starship approved for a staggering number of launches. Adding them together from the three launch sites, that is Nearly 3 Starship Launches Every Week!? Yea, This New Approval is HUGE! If we add in all this magic for the week, we may be very close to seeing the third ever orbital booster capable of reflight. Never a dull moment watching all this, that’s for sure.

I find it odd and perplexing that Marcus pronounces his last name "Hasidy"
There are only 2 Starship launch pads: Boca Chica with 2 pads [ only one operational ] and Canaveral with 2 unfinished pads at LC 39A.
The boosters have never achieve orbit, and neither has Starship. Total launches between the 2 sites could be as much as 145 launches a year. [ SpaceX will need that many to be able to do the Lunar mission by 2029, after having passed many major hurdles [ like preliminary design review, manned ratings, etc. Not a sure thing by 2029. ]
