On February 28, Elon Musk posted that it was likely Starship would become fully reusable in 2025. You can see the X post here: https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1895598258225106984 This market will resolve to "Yes" if SpaceX or Elon Musk announces that Starship is fully reusable by December 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". Note, this market refers to the Starship upper stage and does not require reusability for the Super-Heavy booster. For this market to resolve to "Yes" it is not necessary that an actual reuse occur, only that SpaceX or Elon Musk announces that Starship is fully reusable by this market's resolution date. The resolution source for this market is announcements by Elon Musk and SpaceX, or their official representatives.Recent SpaceX Starship test flights, including the July 2026 Flight 13 debut of V3 vehicles with upgraded Raptor engines and avionics, have advanced tower-based booster catching and reuse, following the first Super Heavy booster reuse on Flight 9 in 2025. These milestones, combined with ongoing preparations for an orbital V3 mission and potential upper-stage catch attempt on Flight 14, underpin trader confidence in achieving full system reusability—both stages recovered and rapidly reflown—well before 2028. Upcoming catalysts include expanded flight cadence, in-space propellant transfer demonstrations, and Starlink deployments that validate the architecture needed for high-rate operations. While ship catch reliability remains the key hurdle, the pace of hardware iterations and regulatory progress supports the 69.5% implied probability for a "Yes" outcome.
