This week has been a rollercoaster of *anticipation* for spaceflight enthusiasts. We were eagerly looking forward to the maiden launches of both New Glenn and Starship Block 2, but both have been rescheduled for this coming week. That said, there’s still plenty to dive into!
At Starbase, SpaceX made significant progress in preparation for Flight 7. The team conducted a full-stack wet dress rehearsal with the Flight 7 vehicle—Booster 14 and Ship 33—poised for what is likely the final suborbital launch of Starship. More on that later!
Meanwhile, China completed two orbital launches, one from Xichang and another from a sea-based platform in the Yellow Sea. SpaceX also had a busy week with *four* Falcon 9 missions, including a historic milestone: the B1067 booster completed its 25th flight and landing, becoming the first to reach this remarkable achievement! Enjoy!
