How fast can you turn a flown rocket around and fly it again?

SpaceX fittin to find out..... SN5 Starship test article flew 150 meters on August 4th. It has since been gone over and appears ready to fly again. It looks to have been waiting for it's sister ship, SN6 to complete it's hop. Which it did today. Plan is said to be that these two articles will take turns hopping while he;ping SpaceX smooth the launch, rinse, repeat cycle. Falcon does get reused, record is six launches for one booster so far, but the rehab cycle is measured in months. I expect that, RUDs aside, they will reduce the turn time on these to days, not months.

This next year is going to chock full of crazy stuff down there......

SpaceX hops a full-scale Starship prototype for the second time

Next up: More hops, a tank test, and higher flights, most likely.
