SpaceX is launching Starship Flight 12 This Month to Make History! Sooner than NASA...
We don’t have to wait any longer, SpaceX is set to launch Starship Flight 12 this very month! This isn’t just a guess; it’s based on the current status of Booster 19 and Ship 39, the two vehicles that will make 2026’s first big milestone.
Interestingly, this launch lines up almost perfectly with the schedule for Artemis 2. So that raises a big question: which mission matters more for humanity’s return to the Moon, Starship Flight 12, or Artemis 2?
Let’s dive into today’s episode of Alpha Tech.

It’s been almost three months since 2025’s final flight, Flight 11, a mission that gave us so many emotions: the thrill as Starship was engulfed in plasma, the joy when it successfully deployed 8 dummy Starlink, and the heartbreak as both the booster and the ship splashed down… and exploded.
But in this gap, SpaceX hasn’t been standing still. Everything at Starbase has changed at a lightning pace to prepare for an even more thrilling flight: Flight 12, SpaceX’s first mission of the new year, made especially for fans. This flight isn’t just a test of new hardware, it’s also a goldmine for data that will support future lunar missions.

So, when exactly is it going to launch? Well, Ship 39 was actually fully stacked back in November, and it should have already rolled out to Massey for cryo testing. But after Booster 18 suffered a LOX tank rupture, suspected to be caused by the COPVs, SpaceX had to remove all the COPVs from Ship 39 inside Megabay 2 for inspection, and possibly replacement. That added a lot more time than initially planned.
Work like this isn’t publicized, of course. Megabay 2 is usually closed during these procedures to keep prying eyes, especially from China, away. The last time Ship 39 was spotted was on January 2nd, when the bay doors opened, revealing its tall, glossy black form thanks to its ceramic heat shield tiles, surrounded by a dense web of scaffolding.
