SpaceX Starship revealed First payload and crew to Moon
==========
SpaceX's Starship has won the first commercial cargo and crew contract to the Moon despite having never flown before!!
Wow, that's freaking cool!
But when will it launch?
Why Starship is so attractive?
Find out everything about this in today's episode of Alpha Tech:
Any fans of Ray Bradbury or other pre-space-age science fiction will be familiar with the concept of daily “rockets to the Moon” or other mundane space flights imagined by starry-eyed authors and readers. While we have reached the point of general public disinterest in “ordinary” space launches of satellites and such, due to the regularity and relative safety of these accomplishments, we haven’t yet achieved the milestone of fully reusable space vehicles where the entire “rocketship” is utilized as a whole structure over and over again, as a commuter rocketship to the Moon might be.
While the Space Shuttle pioneered a reusable, landable space vehicle that could be crewed, launched, and landed repeatedly, the largest part of the launch assembly (the external fuel tank) wasn’t reusable, mostly burning up in the atmosphere. The Solid Rocket Booster (SRB) engines provided around 85% of the thrust at launch and for the first two minutes of ascent. After burnout, the SRBs were jettisoned and parachuted into the ocean where they were recovered, examined, refurbished, and reused. Over 5,000 parts needed to be refurbished for reuse after each flight. This was an expensive and complicated operation.
