This evening, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk will give a presentation about his company\u2019s next generation Starship system \u2014 a massive new rocket that SpaceX has been developing over the last few years to take humans to the Moon and eventually Mars. It\u2019ll be Musk\u2019s first presentation on the vehicle since 2019 and his fifth one overall since 2016.<\/p>\n

Starship is by far SpaceX\u2019s most ambitious project to date. The design calls for a giant spaceship and rocket combo that would be more powerful than the Saturn V rocket that took humans to the Moon. Starship, the passenger part of the vehicle, is meant to launch to space on top of a gargantuan booster rocket known as the Super Heavy. Starship is supposed to be capable of landing on the surface of the Moon and back on Earth, while Super Heavy is also meant to land itself back on Earth, making the entire system reusable.<\/p>\n
