Starship Flight 12 Has a New Date, What's Left To Do Before Launch?
SpaceX announced that its Starship Flight 12 has moved past the wet‑dress rehearsal milestone, but the launch date has slipped from the previously cited May 15 window. The full stack—Starship SN‑39 atop Super Heavy booster 19—was fully fueled with over 5,000 metric tons of propellant, then rolled back for post‑rehearsal checks. Remaining tasks include installing the flight‑termination system, completing a rollback, and securing the pending FAA launch licence, pushing the earliest possible lift‑off to May 19. The vehicle is the new V3 configuration, featuring higher‑thrust Raptor 3 engines, a reusable lattice structure for hot‑staging, and a slightly taller 408‑ft profile. The flight path will now cross the Yucatán‑Cuba corridor, and the booster will not be caught; the Starship will splash down in the Indian Ocean. Delaying the launch to mid‑May gives SpaceX time to resolve safety and regulatory steps, but it also underscores the challenges of fielding a brand‑new launch system. Investors and downstream customers will watch the May 19 window closely, as a successful debut could accelerate SpaceX’s commercial and deep‑space ambitions.
