NOTAM's starting on the 25th, though SpaceX is still saying NET 24th. Elon briefing will come ahead of the flight.

Hoping for 3 more launches this year still (10-12):

JSWT finds new Uranus moon. Last moon discovered was last year, but before that, 2003.

Earliest Block 3 launch is probably February of 2026 according to Ryan on NSF. He is guaranteeing it!

Just based on previous timelines.

I'm guessing they push for it and it slips to early 2026 sometime.

He's probably correct, but that generally assumes a pretty linear timeline. I'm curious if they try another booster catch on flight 11, and/or when OLT2 is going to be ready for operation.

Still pretty incredible. They just accelerate.

Yeah I think booster catch might depend on if they nail the profile on this try. My guess is they won't or they will and then they'll try a slightly different profile so they will land the next one in the ocean too.

And I feel mighty spoiled because I only make the 80 minute trip if they try to catch the booster.

Until they get to the next version of the boosters (and Raptor 3's) I am not sure the risk to the launch tower is worth another attempt. I'm rarely right though when it comes to guessing what SpaceX will do, so take that for what it is worth.

I don't think there's much point risking the OLM catching the current generation of boosters any longer. They know they can catch it so it makes more sense to get more extreme flight data from landing the boosters in the water.

Why is Elon showing a booster catch? There's no booster catch planned right?

Not this one and more than likely not the next one.

Getting off SPI on a Sunday evening at 6:30 in the summer is a grind anyway. Can't imagine what it will be like after a launch at that time.

Man... I've been to 3 launches but haven't seen a booster catch yet.
