Flight 14 Marks Starship Milestone

SpaceX's 14th full-scale Starship test reached Earth orbit after launching from Texas. The uncrewed vehicle carried 26 Starlink V3 satellites during the September 28 mission.

Earlier Starship tests followed suborbital paths. Flight 14 was designed to circle Earth several times before a controlled splashdown in the Pacific, giving engineers data for future flights and reusable spacecraft operations.
