'Demos or phobos gets major work done to catch booster and/or starship' so much for that,
both got sold

My prediction for the rest of 2023 for spacex
starship flys 3 times
The oft is a success with  booster 7 being caught  by the OLIT
the second starship flight is with booster 9 and ship 26

the third and final flight launches starlink v2 (21)for the first time.
Falcon 9 flys 90 times falcon heavy flies 5 times including ussf 52 via sat 3, ussf 67 psyche and another un specified mission
That about all of my predictions

Welcome to the forum.  I hope your predictions are correct.   I'm ready to see SH + SS fly

An integrated New Glenn doesn't show up on pad until late 2026, nor does it launch until 2027.  This is the medium optimist view.

Artemis 2 will be lucky to occur in late 2026, with 2027 being more viable.

"Artemis 2 will be lucky to occur in late 2026, with 2027 being more viable."

I hope that's a typo and you meant Artemis 3.  For Artemis 2 it seems a trifle pessimistic.

NASA now says that Artemis 2 is scheduled to launch in November 2024. Likewise, internal NASA FY 2024 budget documents indicate that Artemis 3 will be launched in late 2025.
