SpaceX Starship is a next-generation spacecraft developed by SpaceX for interplanetary travel and transport. The Starship vehicle is designed to be fully reusable and capable of carrying up to 100 passengers and cargo to destinations such as Mars, the Moon, and beyond.
The launch process for the Starship involves several stages. First, the Starship vehicle is loaded onto a SpaceX Super Heavy rocket booster, which provides the initial thrust needed to lift the Starship off the launchpad. Once the Super Heavy booster has expended its fuel, it detaches from the Starship and returns to Earth for reuse.
The Starship then continues its journey into space, propelled by its own engines. During this phase, the Starship may perform maneuvers such as orbit insertion, trans-Mars injection, or lunar landing. Once the Starship has completed its mission, it can return to Earth for reuse, landing vertically on a launchpad or landing pad.
SpaceX has conducted several Starship launches and test flights in recent years, including suborbital hops and high-altitude flights. The company plans to conduct more extensive test flights and orbital launches in the coming years, with the ultimate goal of establishing a permanent human presence on Mars and other planets.
