Starship's Orbital Test Flight Targeted for Second Half of April Confirmed by SpaceX.

TL;DR Summary
SpaceX's Starship and Booster 7 are in final preparations for their historic test flight, with a launch date targeted for the second half of April. The launch attempt will follow a successful Wet Dress Rehearsal and FTS arming. Scrubs late in the count will provide valuable data for upcoming vehicles, and a full mission success would result in the Booster splashing down in the Gulf of Mexico, while Ship 24 re-enters and splashes down off the coast of Hawaii. The launch site's ability to cope with the maiden flight will determine the possibility of another launch within a few months.
