> Starship is just orders of magnitude less than this.

Starship does not exist.

Starship is the name given to a design for a fully reusable superheavy launch vehicle intended to take 100t to LEO.

The things being launched by SpaceX are not Starship.

They are impressive, but are not Starship.

They are called Starship, but are not Starship.

Let me be clear. I am not saying that Starship will not exist.

What I am saying is that today, right now, Starship does not exist and SLS does.

You implied that Starship does exist, and is cheaper.

Nobody, not you, not me, not Lord Ketamine, can predict when it will exist or how much it will cost with any degree of accuracy.

I genuinely, sincerely, and earnestly WANT Starship to exist, but as of today, April 24th, 2025 it does not.
