> SpaceX planned to achieve a turnaround time for F9 of 24 hours. So far, the best they could do is 27 days. They didn't plan to achieve this. It was an Elon's tweet when they only started recovering F9 booster, even before B5 (please correct me if I remember incorrectly). SpaceX can be anything, but they're still a business. There is no reason whatsoever for 24 hour turnaround for F9. First of all they have a fleet of eight F9 boosters. Boosters are waiting for payloads, not the other way around like in the past. Even with Starlink, 2021 cadence has only been a launch every 10 days so far, and with that SpaceX already put more payloads into space than everyone else combined in 2021, governments or commercials. Why invest in something with no return, just for bragging right? Second of all, and this is more important, F9 is the past, Starship is the future. Why invest in a dead end product when the future is such a game changer? They are on the cusp of launching SH/SS in the near term, according to Gwynne Shotwell just a few days ago.
