@reevemusk35: Why Could Starship Need So Many Refueling Flights Just to Reach the Moon? 🚀🌕 Getting astronauts to the Moon may require an extraordinary amount of orbital preparation. SpaceX plans to refuel its Starship lunar lander in Earth orbit using multiple tanker spacecraft before sending it toward the Moon. Some planning estimates have suggested as many as 22 tanker launches, although the final number remains uncertain. The challenge isn't simply reaching space. It's transferring and storing enormous quantities of cryogenic propellant in orbit. Could orbital refueling become the key to humanity's future on the Moon and Mars? #SpaceX #startwithstarters #artemis #fyp #gym
