April 6, 2026Robin

Robin shares a communications notice describing Test Flight 13 operations, indicating plans for both stages to return to the launch site or perform water landings, with ship catch also implied.

And it technically allows for a ship catch too!
"operation: Launch vehicle communications for Test Flight 13 mission launching from Starbase, TX.
The first stage booster and the second stage will either return to the launch site or perform a water landing."
