People could fly on Starship in 2020, if it reached orbit in about six months.

Verbatim

“I think we could potentially see people fly next year, if we get to orbit in about six months”

Why it is marked missed

Missed. The condition failed too. Starship first reached orbit on Flight 14, September 28, 2026, carrying Starlink satellites, not people. USA Today called it a spacecraft still under development.
