Starship

The Martian

He’s back at it again. Elon Musk finally announced that the starship prototype has been completed. For those of you who don’t know what this stainless steel skyscraper is, here’s a little bit of info.

Elon Musks goal for SpaceX was to make humans an interplanetary species. Starship is his way of achieving this goal. Having gone through numerous name changes, this giant of a rocket has finally been completed it took a while but Elon finally made it happen.

What does this mean? Well, a number of things. Firstly us science enthusiasts can finally be satisfied with Elon’s promises. I for one, believe that I might be able to witness a crew of humans go to Mars within my lifetime and hopefully contribute to it in some way.

This is a huge step for the space industry and has established SpaceX as one of the bigger companies in the space race. This coupled with the rockets first launch as soon as 2023, could mark the beginning of a new era for mankind. Well Elon, our prayers are for your success.
