The SpaceX Starship has just completed its most important flight.
It proved that the concept is viable, and even with intentionally induced flaws in the thermal protection of critical sections, it showed itself to be resilient, controllable, and safe. It managed to start and shut down its engines, executed a perfect landing maneuver, and along the way even deployed a few satellites just to prove it can do everything at once.
It is the beginning of a new era.
We now have a spacecraft that could travel from Texas to Australia in about an hour and that, in the future, will be refueled on the Moon or on Mars. A new world lies ahead of us. Space is no longer a luxury reserved for governments and billionaires; it is a new ocean open to the discovery of the common human being.
The factory is already operating at Starbase in Texas, ready to produce one Starship per week. Launch towers are rising in Florida and Texas. Within a few years we will witness a new technological revolution, not only of artificial intelligence and robotics but also of human bodies ascending to the sky and traveling through space.
