Starship Flight 13 Timeline Taking Shape | B20 Passes First Cryo Test | Starship Update

Starship Flight 12 may be over, but SpaceX is already pushing hard toward Flight 13. This week, Booster 20 rolled to Massey's for cryogenic proof testing and completed its first successful cryo test while Ship 40 continued preparations for static fire testing. We also examine what remains before both vehicles can be cleared for launch and discuss how Flight 13's timeline is shaping up. Meanwhile, production continues across Starbase as Ship 41 and Booster 21 make progress toward Flight 14. We also check in on Raptor testing at McGregor, Gigabay construction in Texas and Florida, launch pad upgrades, and new clues about SpaceX's future plans including Starfall, orbital manufacturing, and asteroid mining concepts revealed through recent SpaceX materials. 🚀 Topics covered: • Booster 20 cryogenic testing • Ship 40 engine installation and testing plans • Flight 13 launch timeline • Ship 41 and Booster 21 progress • Raptor 3 production and testing • Starfactory updates • Marmac 31 returns to Florida • LC-39A and SLC-37 construction • Pad 1 and Pad 2 upgrades • Starfall and future SpaceX concepts • Starlink V3 launch plans What do you think the objectives for Flight 13 will be?
