SpaceX to attempt catching Starship booster on next flight
Original: SpaceX to attempt Starship catch on next flight, with eye on rapid cadence increase
SpaceX says it will try to catch its Super Heavy booster with the launch tower's mechanical arms on the next Starship test flight, a step it skipped earlier. The company is also aiming to sharply increase the pace of Starship launches in the coming months, a rapid cadence central to its plans for lunar and Mars missions.
Why now: The announcement of an ambitious booster-catch attempt and faster launch schedule is significant news for spaceflight observers.
