Draft:Starship flight test 12
Rocket flight test
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Starship flight test 12 will be the twelfth flight test of a SpaceX Starship launch vehicle, using Booster 19 and Ship 39.[4] Flight 12 will feature the first use of Block 3 vehicles, as well as being the first launch from Starbase's second launch pad.[5] It will repeat the same flight profile as the previous flights, with the ship falling slightly short of reaching orbit.[6] The flight was originally supposed to use Booster 18, but it was destroyed shortly before cryogenic testing,[7] resulting in B19 becoming the flight vehicle.[4]

Comment: Not a large enough range of sources to establish this as notable. Even if the sourcing did exist, which I believe it will in the future, I'm unsure if there's enough content here to warrant splitting from List of Starship launches. Definitely a case of WP:TOOSOON though. Rambley (talk / contribs) 19:00, 9 December 2025 (UTC)
