Regarding the next SpaceX crewed launch, Crew 9:
"We will let SpaceX use our first stage booster; they'll go fly a Starlink flight ahead of our flight, to get a little shakedown of that booster. It had some moisture intrusion and we want to go ahead and get that booster flown. And so there's a win/win there of flying our booster on a Starlink flight before our crewed flight."
Steve Stich, manager, Commercial Crew Program, on the call today.
