@Teslaconomics Starship already reached orbital velocity, which is success for all other rockets. Achieving full reusability will be profound not for reasons of valuation, but because it will enable consciousness to extend permanently beyond Earth.

@WallStreetSilv Max payload to standard Earth reference orbit is actually ~180 tons for Starship when it is fully reusable and ~300 tons if expendable. Latter number is the apples-to-apples number comparing Starship to Saturn V. >100 tons to the Starlink orbit is the operational spec minimum.

@astro_g_dogg Took more work to make F9 booster reuse cost-effective than went into recovering it in the first place. This is an important point. Things finally clicked into place with Block 5. My hat is off to everyone at SpaceX, NASA, Space Force, FAA & suppliers who helped make it happen.

@PPathole Booster has 2 pins for lifting & catching, although maybe it’s better to modify grid fins to take more load. Something will need to flip out from leeward side of top of ship to do same there. Maybe it’s part of fwd flaps, but prob not. Diff solutions for diff load paths.

@Erdayastronaut @Blamblas @latimes @SpaceX @blueorigin Exactly. Mars propellant production will combine atmospheric CO2 & water (ice) to make CH4 (methane) & O2. Will do same on Earth long-term. Short-term, each Falcon flight uses roughly same fuel mass as a 747 flight. Falcon is ~71% oxygen & Starship is ~78%, so mostly not fuel.
