The founder of SpaceX, Elon Musk, said that the two-stage Starship rocket will be able to fly in the near future. The entrepreneur announced this on Twitter .

In a Twitter account called "Teslarati", dedicated to the success of SpaceX, it was reported that the orbital platform is almost ready and tests of the superheavy accelerator and SN-20 will soon be held.

In the comments to this publication, Musk said that the first Starship orbital complex should be ready for space flight in the coming weeks. According to the head of SpaceX, it remains to wait for regulatory approval.


Users jokingly asked Musk what time he means: real or his own calculus. In response to this, the businessman replied that he meant the generally accepted weeks.

On August 7, it became known that SpaceX has assembled the tallest Starship rocket in history. The Starship, together with Booster 4 (the prototype of the Super Heavy rocket stage) and Ship 20 (the prototype of the Starship spacecraft), reaches about 120 meters in length. The rocket was assembled at the SpaceX spaceport in Boca Chica, Texas.
