    HEADLINES AND LAUNCHES

    ST=
    ARSHIP FLIGHT 14 TARGETS FIRST FULL ORBITAL LAUNCH, NET SEPTEMBER
    22 (3 M=
    INUTE READ) [4]=20

    SpaceX has set Starship Flight 14 as its first attem=
    pt at a full
    orbital mission, currently targeted no earlier than Septembe=
    r 22 (an
    earlier FCC filing had pointed to September 15), with Booster 21=
    and
    Ship 41. The flight is expected to deploy next-gen Starlink V3
    sat=
    ellites, which SpaceX says carry over ten times the capacity of
    current s=
    atellites for "fiber-like" speeds, marking the first time
    Starship has re=
    leased operational payloads in orbit rather than flying
    a suborbital traj=
    ectory. Musk confirmed the upper stage won't attempt
    a tower catch this t=
    ime, that capability is being saved for Flight 15,
    where he's given it a =
    50-60% success chance, while Booster 21 will
    most likely attempt a soft s=
    plashdown in the Gulf of Mexico following
    an anomaly during Booster 20's =

    NVIDIA OSMO is an open-source, Kuber=

    evaluation, and hardware-in-the-loop testing across =

    software stacks. The organization is attempting to bridge the gap=

    between open-source robotic software innovation and rigorous
