The, the degree to which Starshipis a revolutionary technology is not well understood in the world. "It's the first time that there's been any rocket design, where full rapid reusability is possible - well, full reusability at all is possible, or full reusability at all is possible," Musk's word salad continued. "This is the first design where a reusable rocket is one of the possible - with success - is one of the possible outcomes."

For one, it launched a pair of NASA spacecraft named ESCAPADE, which are headed to Mars orbit to study that planet's magnetic environment and atmosphere. The twin spacecraft will first travel to a Lagrange point, a place where the gravity between Earth, the Moon, and the Sun balances. The ESCAPADE spacecraft will remain there until Mars is in better alignment to travel to.
