Are there any references that indicate that the components located in the interstage in blocks 1 and 2 have been moved to the methane tank in block 3? AmigaClone (talk) 10:33, 22 September 2025 (UTC)
I've seen claims that they've been moved to the chines.
The grid fins are moved into the methane tank, though Redacted II (talk) 11:01, 22 September 2025 (UTC)
I knew the grid fins had been moved from the interstage to the methane tanks, but was not sure on the other components located in the interstage in SuperHeavy Block 1 and 2.
The 'interstage' on block 3 appears to be only the radically redesigned hot stage ring. AmigaClone (talk) 22:33, 2 October 2025 (UTC)
2 redundant sections
Proposal: Combine the two sections "Integrated flight tests (2023–)" and "Past launches". The subsection called "Integrated flight tests (2023–)" largely repeats the content of the table below headed "Past launches". -- Ssilvers (talk) 04:40, 14 October 2025 (UTC)
Yes (as proposer). The two sections are almost entirely repetitive, and any other information, such as the June 2025 static fire explosion, could remain with the material above. -- Ssilvers (talk) 01:27, 14 October 2025 (UTC)
(I recommend merging the two parts of that post, because it looks like its two posts, when its only one)
Complete deletion of that section is a bad idea, but it can certainly be condensed Redacted II (talk) 02:26, 14 October 2025 (UTC)
New statement for fast development of Starship for Lunar and beyond missions from Elon Musk
Table in the versions section give thrust in (tf) which is neither metric not compares to NM given later in the text. Be consistent, be metric. ~2025-35071-58 (talk) 10:38, 20 November 2025 (UTC)
"Starship cargo flights to the lunar surface for research, development, and exploratory missions start in 2028, at a rate of $100 million per metric ton."*
Maybe for more tons have discounts?
It is same price for delivery to Mars.
Is possible prices to be lowered significantly in near (after 2028) or far future but not sure.

Cost of SpaceX Starship is above $15B
I think that article here must be redacted because this.
Now we know that cost of development isn't just more of $5B but few times more to this moment. When I prompt one LLM answer was "between $15B and $18B", but now we have more valuable source.
It is not yet possible to quote the source, as the documents for the initial public offering of SpaceX are still confidential to the general public. However, the documents have already been reviewed by various state and private administrations. ГеоргиУики (talk) 08:45, 2 May 2026 (UTC)
