The company has identified that date as a target, but it's far from set in stone.
Starship consists of a huge first-stage booster called Super Heavy and a 165-foot-tall upper-stage spacecraft known, somewhat confusingly, as Starship.
Both vehicles are made of stainless steel, powered by the company's new Raptor engine and designed to be fully and rapidly reusable., and its reusability will allow SpaceX to launch huge payloads to Earth orbit and beyond for very low prices, the company has said. Musk thinks the vehicle will revolutionize spaceflight, helping make ambitious feats such as Mars colonization economically feasible.
