Starship Flight 12 ONE DAY Delayed due to…Final Preparations is Kind of Mind-Blowing!
SpaceX has officially shifted Starship Flight 12 by another day, but behind the scenes, preparations at Starbase are becoming absolutely intense. From nonstop Pad 2 testing and massive water deluge operations to payload loading for Ship 39 and the possibility of a rare dual rollout with Booster 19, Flight 12 is entering its final phase before launch.
In today’s episode, we break down the latest launch timeline update targeting May 20th, why the delay likely happened, and what SpaceX has been doing across Starbase at an almost unbelievable pace. We also analyze Ship 39’s latest cryogenic, spin prime, and igniter testing campaign, the official movement of the Starlink “Pez dispenser” payload system, and why Pad 2 has suddenly become one of the busiest launch complexes on Earth.
Meanwhile, CRS-34 Dragon has successfully docked with the International Space Station once again, continuing SpaceX’s remarkable streak of operational reliability. Elon Musk reacted by saying ISS docking is becoming “routine,” a statement that says a lot about how far commercial spaceflight has evolved. We’ll also discuss why Dragon remains one of NASA’s most important spacecraft today.

Finally, we cover ULA’s latest Vulcan update after successful GEM 63XL solid rocket booster testing with Northrop Grumman. While Vulcan’s return-to-flight timeline remains uncertain, new milestones involving Amazon’s Kuiper missions and the new VIF-A integration facility show that ULA is still pushing hard toward high-cadence launch operations.
Oops!
We need to adjust the schedule for Starship Flight 12 once again.
Because of course, the timeline has officially slipped by another day.
Still, despite the delay, SpaceX continues moving at an absolutely relentless pace behind the scenes.
Meanwhile, Dragon successfully docked with the International Space Station once again, almost casually at this point, prompting an interesting reaction from Elon Musk.
And over at United Launch Alliance, Vulcan’s solid booster testing achieved an important success, although the rocket’s return-to-flight timeline remains uncertain.
So let’s break everything down on today’s episode of Great SpaceX.
