Starship’s 14th flight was scheduled for September 28, 2026

Spaceflight Now, citing SpaceX’s Dan Huot, reported that the team would deorbit Ship 41 rather than complete its planned orbital profile. NASASpaceflight described an expected explosion at splashdown.

SpaceX said the September 28 flight was planned to deploy 26 Starlink V3 satellites. A user said some heat-shield tiles from Ship 40 were being reused on Ship 41.
