SpaceX Starship Flight 12 & NASA/SpaceX CRS-12 Launch

Join Star Fleet for the first-ever flight of the new Starship and Super Heavy Version 3, and the first launch from the brand new Pad 2! The current earliest possible launch date for Starship Flight 12 is No Earlier Than Friday May 15 at 5:30 PM CDT (22:30 UTC) for the mission, although it is expected to slip, and we'll be out there to view it!

Our planned Starship launch viewing location at the mouth of the South Bay, approximately 4 miles / 7 km from the launch site with a direct line of sight across the water, provides some of the closest and clearest views of the pad, rocket, liftoff and booster landing available to the public. Unlike the location where most other vessels anchor, this offers a closer and clearer sightline, and has calmer, less busy waters without the need to constantly jockey for position.

Meanwhile, SpaceX has a confirmed launch date of Tuesday May 12 at 7:16 PM EDT (23:16 UTC) for the CRS-34 Cargo Dragon mission for NASA to the International Space Station, which will feature a spectacular booster landing back at the launch site. We plan to offer both launch and pre-launch sunset trips for this mission which can get as close as 4 mi / 7 km to launch and landing (and 500-1000 yd/m from the rocket and spacecraft on the pad), depending on demand. Reach out if you are interested!

LATEST LAUNCH UPDATE: As of Thursday May 7, hazard zones indicate a Starship Flight 12 launch window now opening as early as May 16, from 5:30-7:30 PM CDT (22:30-00:30 UTC) each day. The booster static fire is now apparently complete, although SpaceX has yet to confirm its success nor a launch date and additional work and testing is still needed before flight. As such, we are standing by to officially confirm boats and open up tickets once we have confirmed information of a relatively firm launch date. As always, keep an eye here, on our social media or our WhatsApp community for the latest updates!

Meanwhile, the NASA/SpaceX CRS-34 launch and landing of the Cargo Dragon capsule to the space station continues to be on track for May 12 at 7:16 PM EDT (23:16 UTC), and tickets are NOW AVAILIBLE! It'll feature a closeup view of the launch and landing on this mission, so grab them while you can!

We have a Whats App community that we highly recommend you join, with channels for announcements, insider launch updates, discussion, questions and more! We also use it for early tickets, special community events and more! You can also follow our Twitter, Instagram and Facebook for announcements and updates. Thanks!
