It Happened! FAA officially revealed SpaceX's Crazy Plans to Return Starship in 2026…
How will SpaceX bring Starship back to Starbase?
That is the question that many people, myself included, have been asking.
Now, the path for Starship’s return has finally been revealed. SpaceX has officially presented a proposal that outlines how the vehicle will make its way back to its launch site, complete with mapped routes and defined steps.
But just how significant is this proposal? And what will SpaceX need to do in order to prepare for this plan?
Join us as we explore the answers on today’s episode of Great SpaceX.

Starship has had a turbulent year, filled with challenges, setbacks, and even some high-profile failures. Yet, despite all of these difficulties, success finally arrived with Flight 10. This mission marked a turning point for the program and provided renewed confidence in the long-term vision SpaceX is pursuing. While we must be cautious in declaring total success since Flight 11 still lies ahead, the progress that has been made opens up entirely new possibilities for Starship’s future.
One of the most exciting outcomes is that SpaceX may soon be able to return both stages of Starship to the Launch Site, potentially as early as next year. This would represent the first time the vehicle could perform a full return to its origin point at Starbase in Boca Chica, Texas, rather than being limited to partial reentry paths that terminate elsewhere. However, this raises a critical question: what exact trajectory will Starship take to make this round trip possible?

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) recently provided an answer. The agency released the Draft Tiered Environmental Assessment, or Draft Tiered EA, for Updates to Airspace Closures for Additional Launch Trajectories and Starship Boca Chica Landings of the SpaceX Starship-Super Heavy Vehicle at the Boca Chica Launch Site in Cameron County, Texas. The timing of this document is important. If SpaceX intends to land Starship at its launch site, then oversight agencies like the FAA must review and approve the plan in detail before operations can proceed.
