Probably Thursday or Friday our time Elon Musk will do a live presentation from Boca Chica and show off to the world his fully stacked Starship in preparation for its maiden suborbital flight shortly after ( possibly up to a week later )
This behemoth is nearly 400 feet high and will have a lift off thrust of over twice that of the Saturn 5 (16 million pounds or the equivalent at sea level of nearly 320 million horsepower)
This event marks the start of possibly our future journey back to the Moon , to Mars and beyond.
If Space X can pull off this first test flight then our dreams of getting back to the Moon by 2025 will become a possibility not a dream. Mars by 2035 is still a dream IMO but who knows , the pace at which Space X is developing, testing and performing successful missions is staggering
