Elon Musk is not sure Starship's first orbital test launch will be a success, but said 'excitement guaranteed' after his company announced it could carry out the major trial run as soon as Monday 17 April.
The billionaire said any launch this week only has a 50% chance of success, but thinks there's an 80% chance of reaching orbit by the end of the year., and generated enough power to reach orbit.Starship would be carried skyward by a Super Heavy prototype called Booster 7 from a launch pad in Brownsville.
The rocket system's second stage - the craft that would carry a crew of astronauts in the future - would then be deployed and complete a full orbit of the Earth, before re-entering the atmosphere and splashing into the Pacific.No landings will be attempted in the debut test flight, and no satellites or people will be on board.
