WHY STARSHIP NEEDS TO BE SO MASSIVE: ELON MUSK EXPLAINS THE SCALE FOR MARSElon has repeatedly emphasized that Starship’s enormous size—nearly 400 ft tall, over 5,000 tons fueled, ~1,200 tons of propellant—is no accident.It’s engineered for the massive tonnage required to build a self-sustaining city on Mars, far beyond what smaller rockets could ever achieve affordably or practically.“It’s designed to make life multiplanetary, otherwise extreme overkill for mere Earth sector activity! Starship fleet mass to ...

24 years ago, @elonmusk had to introduce himself and even spell his last name for @SpaceX and yet now they are the sole leader for space exploration and space travel. We are getting to Mars in our lifetime. What an incredible journey.https://t.co/0gXGlZPgzM ...

Falcon, which will happen. Oh, as you see on your screen, right on time. Dragon now flying free.>> Dragon separation confirmed. >> What a great view with the crew 12 crew on board Dragon Freedom separating from Falcon 9 second stage. Dragon Freedom Chief Engineer Jessica, Jack, Sophie, Andre, welcome to orbit.On behalf of the entire Falcon team, we thank you for flying with Falcon 9. Dragon will take you from here over to our launch director for a few words. ...

Elon Musk just made a huge change for SpaceX's mission. Rather than focus on getting to Mars, instead they are now focused on building a self-growing city on the moon. And they say they can potentially achieve it in under 10 years.The mission of SpaceX remains the same. Extend consciousness and life as we know it to the stars. It is only possible to travel to Mars when the planets align every 26 months.6 month trip time. Whereas we can launch to the moon every 10 days, 2-day trip time. ...

Starship turns the dream of Mars into reality: launched by Super Heavy, refueled in orbit by tanker ships, it blasts across the void on methane-oxygen power—carrying 100+ tons of crew, cargo, and hope. It aerobrakes through the thin Martian atmosphere, then lands propulsively to kickstart humanity’s multiplanetary future. 🚀🔴One fully reusable beast, endless possibilities: Starship doesn’t just get us to Mars—it makes going there practical, repeatable, and the first step toward a self-sustaining city on anot ...

STARSHIP V3 VS FALCON 1: CHEAPER LAUNCHES, 400X MORE PAYLOAD – ELON MUSK ON THE SCALE REVOLUTIONStarship V3 isn’t just bigger—it’s a quantum leap in efficiency, aiming to cost less than a Falcon 1 per launch (~$3M aspiration) while hauling 200+ tons to orbit vs. Falcon 1’s 450 kg. That’s 400X the payload at a fraction of the price, turning space access from elite to everyday.“It’s designed to make life multiplanetary, otherwise extreme overkill for mere Earth sector activity! Starship fleet mass to orbit pe ...

THE KEY BRANCHING POINT FOR HUMANITY: ELON MUSK ON WHY MARS MUST BE SELF-SUSTAININGDon’t get complacent—Elon just dropped a reality check that’s equal parts urgent and inspiring. We’re not talking distant sci-fi; we’re talking near-term boots on Mars if civilization keeps pushing forward.“The key branching point for human destiny or destiny of consciousness as a whole is that Mars is self-sustaining, even if the resupply ships from Earth stop coming.You’re not multiplanetary until the planet can grow by its ...

This is incredible.
