From a bird's-eye view, it can be seen that the assembly of the main body of a huge rocket is in full swing at the test site. Progress confirms the veracity of the statement by SpaceX CEO and Tesla founder Elon Musk, who said the next generation ship would be ready for test flights between October and November.
The company uses stainless steel to create Starship, giving it the mirror-like shine seen in the video.
Starship is a massive rocket that SpaceX is developing to launch cargo and people to the Moon and Mars. The rocket is reusable, so SpaceX can take off and land multiple times like a commercial plane.
SpaceX is simultaneously building three Starship rockets at the same time: one at its facility in Boca Chica, Texas, and two at its facility in Cocoa, Florida.
SpaceX hopes its reusable rockets will mark a major breakthrough in aerospace technology that will ultimately make space travel cheaper and safer.
Ultimately, Musk hopes that the company's starship will be able to reach first the moon and then Mars. Musk said the first mission to the Red Planet with a crew for a rocket and a 100-passenger spacecraft could begin as early as the mid-2020s if development and testing are successful.
Additional missions could include sending tourists to the moon by 2024, according to the CEO of SpaceX.
