No Earlier Than June, 2027
SpaceX will launch a Starship pathfinder in support of NASA's Artemis III mission to Low Earth Orbit. Starship will be a Version 3 vehicle from the production line, which will be equipped with a docking mechanism. Starship will launch after Orion has launched into LEO aboard SLS, and has completed its demonstrations with Blue Origin's Blue Moon lander. Once docked, Orion and Starship will spend about a day connected for checkouts and testing.
