SPACEX: Starship ready to take humanity’s first permanent step beyond Earth
• Starship is designed to establish a permanent human presence beyond Earth, including lunar and planetary outposts;
• Chosen for NASA’s Artemis program, it will land the first astronauts on the Moon in over 50 years;
• Single Starship has over 600 m³ of pressurized volume, dual airlocks, and can land up to 100 tons of cargo;
• SpaceX is self-funding >90% of Starship development, including production, test, and launch infrastructure;
• Core Starship system has completed numerous test milestones, including multiple flights, propellant transfers in space, and engine relights;
• HLS (Human Landing System) team has completed 49 milestones, including life support, landing software, Raptor engine tests, and EVA elevator/airlock demos;
• Next major steps: long-duration flight test and on-orbit propellant transfer to enable Artemis lunar mission architecture;
• Starship V3 equipped with docking ports, DragonEye sensors, and on-orbit refueling capabilities;
• NASA selected Starship for Artemis III and IV missions, ensuring a permanent return to the Moon;
• Starship enables a sustainable, reusable, cost-effective path for frequent lunar missions and future Mars exploration
