SpaceX Starship
SpaceX Starship is a fully reusable spacecraft developed by SpaceX, designed for various missions, including crewed space travel, satellite deployment, and interplanetary exploration. Starship consists of two main components: the Starship spacecraft itself, which is intended to carry humans and cargo, and the Super Heavy booster, which provides the initial thrust needed to escape Earth's atmosphere. The system is engineered for high cargo capacity and aims to facilitate missions to destinations such as the Moon and Mars, aligning with SpaceX's goal of making life multi-planetary. Starship is built using stainless steel and is equipped with Raptor engines, which use liquid methane and liquid oxygen as propellants. The program emphasizes rapid reusability, allowing for frequent launches and supporting long-term human presence in space.
