The fine print
Said Sep 15 2026 18:23 UTC / 1:23 PM CT (fxtwitter author elonmusk; verbatim). Falsifiable near-term launch-date claim: next Starship flight on 2026-09-22. Dates the 'next flight' referenced by #237 (tower catch attempt on next flight) without changing #237's catch claim. Distinct from past V3 debut cards (#131/#210). check_duplicate.py: NOVEL. Afternoon CEO scout 2026-09-15.
