Iroquois Pliskin on Nostr: Starship is great for launching big payloads from Earth but horrible to put either on ...
Starship is great for launching big payloads from Earth but horrible to put either on the Lunar or the Martian surface. Reusability only works on Earth surface because it can be refuelled. On other bodies this is not the case and all the mass you bring down kicks you in the face when you want to get back up.
