Starship Flight 15: SpaceX Attempts a Double Catch
Original: Starship Flight 15: SpaceX Double Catch Attempt!
SpaceX is preparing Starship Flight 15, which would involve an attempt to catch both the Super Heavy booster and the Starship upper stage with the launch tower's mechanical arms — a 'double catch'. Enthusiasts and commentators are weighing the odds of the maneuver succeeding, as previous flights have caught the booster but landed the ship in the ocean. The mission is drawing attention as a potential first for the program.
Why now: A first-ever double catch attempt would be a major milestone in SpaceX's reusable rocket development.
