SpaceX Starship!

It is designed to take hundreds of passengers on roundtrips to Moon, Mars, and even anywhere in the solar system and land back on Earth.

Musk said in a live-streamed speech that the giant Starship prototype is expected to take off in about one or two months and reach 19,800 meters before returning to Earth.

He also vowed that the Starship could fly to orbit as soon as six months from now, and carry its first passengers sometime next year.

The test rocket is found in Boca Chica, Texas. It is 50 meters (165 feet) tall equipped with three of SpaceX’s next-generation Raptor engines found in its base.

Musk stressed that its goal is to test out the launch and landing capabilities that the final Starship vehicle will need to be a fully reusable system. He added that it was essential for the viability of space travel to be able to reuse spacecraft and it is important to extend our consciousness beyond our planet.

The Verge reported that the Starship prototype will use its engines to fly to a high altitude and then lower itself back down for the propulsive landing technique.

Now, let's wait and see if SpaceX will succeed in achieving this never-before-seen feat.
