“At 5000 tons, Starship is the largest flying object ever made. Thrust is more than double the Saturn V moon rocket. It is the first spaceship design capable of making life multiplanetary. Goal of the next mission is to make it through the meteorically extreme heat of reentry.”

“There is a good chance of achieving full reusability of Starship this year. Full and immediate reflight of Starship, along with orbital refilling, probably happens next year. This is the fundamental breakthrough needed to make life multiplanetary. [@cb_doge] BREAKING: Elon Musk says he believes the ship will achieve reusability this year and that the entire stack—ship and booster—will achieve rapid reusability next year. This is the fundamental breakthrough required for life to become multiplanetary. )”
