SpaceX’s Starship launch is 3 hours away.

The 33 Raptor engines of Super Heavy first stage will generate 265 GW of power.

For reference the entire electrical grid of USA is currently consuming 95GW of power.

During the launch… This one single vehicle will be generating something like 3x the power of the entirety of America.

The biz plan is to fire these things several times per day.
