SpaceX Starship is the project of Elon Musk for suborbital flights. The American visionary Tycoon tweeted its hopes to bring it to 1000 passengers to lower its starting price.
For a point-to-point journey on Earth they will take only 20 minutes on a totally reusable charter. The aircraft will reach a suborbital altitude in less than 10 minutes, using the same for the descent to the destination.
This will bring the prices down already at the start, to stand between 500 and 1000 € per person. It will be like getting on and off on a roller coaster, but we will find ourselves on another continent.
Here from his living words Musk's answer to a follower who asked him for more information following his tweet:
Even taking into account € 2000 per ticket for a business class, SpaceX Starship will still allow you to reach your destination in 20 minutes (with an incredible speed comparable to Mach25) and not from 8 to 24 hours. Just between us, what value-added services will it be possible to serve in just 20 minutes? What businessman can't stand going 20 minutes without some expensive comfort? I believe first class fares on SpaceX Starship will be less than useless.
There are many efforts to be made, and on the other hand the company founded by the owner of Tesla Motors and Neuralink shows that he wants to do them all to the end, in many fields of human knowledge.
They will not be vain efforts, however. The reward for the many labors of SpaceX it will be very, very tempting: over a billion flights worldwide are long-haul.
And they increase by 10% every year.
