Hopefully an orbital test is coming up. SpaceX and its Starship spacecraft are quite busy right now. All sorts of tests and preparations are going on, and now the company has even fully fueled both Booster 7 and SN24, with the two parts joined together. Everything indicates that SpaceX is very interested in conducting an orbital test. However, it should be added that the test requires FAA approval, which can be a big problem based on past experience.
