@OptimizerAdam @elonmusk Its legit if you dont know you can build a model with real world parts and test constraints all within python

Elon Musk: “We want to be a civilization that expands to the galaxy with spaceships that anyone can go anywhere they want, at any time
That would be epic
Have a city on the Moon. Cities on Mars. Populate the entire solar system
Send spaceships to other star systems
That sounds like the best possible future”

Everyone obsesses over Starship's height and thrust.
The number that actually matters: cost per kg to orbit.
Falcon 9 brought it from ~$54,500 (Shuttle era) to ~$1,500. Starship targets <$100.
A 500x reduction in 25 years. That's the curve enabling Mars, lunar bases and orbital industry. Everything else is a consequence of that one number.
