Elon Musk FINALLY Reveals New Cargo Starship 2022!

SpaceX’s Starship is destined to go into deep space. It will transport humans to Mars, making it the farthest traveled crewed spacecraft ever! However, apart from transporting people, the Starship will have another huge function: transporting cargo! As Elon Musk has revealed, transporting cargo with the powerful Starship requires a different configuration! How much can the Starship carry, and how will SpaceX deploy it for cargo transport? Join us as we explore the new Starship Cargo transport as revealed by SpaceX!

Humans have been carrying cargo since the beginning of humanity! Global commerce requires that large volumes of freight move from one part of the world to another! In fact, each year, about 11 billion tons of cargo is moved by ship, meaning 1.5 tonnes for each person alive today! That is just by ship because billions of tonnes more are moved by air, rail, and road!

The need to move cargo, however, is not limited to the earth! When cargos are moved to space, they are usually called payloads, and they vary in nature. Some companies launch satellites, including SpaceX, which is launching Starlink satellites to orbit to provide internet services to people everywhere on earth! It has about 2,000 Starlink satellites up there already and won’t stop until there are more than 12,000 orbiting the earth! SpaceX even delivers cargo to the International Space Station for NASA!

Musk has set his eyes on the cargo transport sector and plans to revolutionize it! He will do so both in space and on the earth! How will he do this? Musk has a not-so-secret weapon: the Starship! It is not secret because you can follow along with how the Starlink is taking shape right on YouTube through 24 hour cameras! However, while your mind will be blown by the massive work the SpaceX crew is doing, you will be more amazed by the plans that Musk has for the Starship in the cargo transport industry, as you shall see in this video! But first, what makes the Starship a good vehicle for transporting large cargo? At least four things!

First is that the Starship is very powerful. In fact, it is the most powerful rocket ever to be built! The rocket produces 72 MN of trust, thanks to its collection of Raptor engines! With this much power, the Starship can lift more than 100 tons of cargo to space, handily beating every other rocket, including the Falcon series! This extraordinary capacity makes the Starship the darling of the cargo hauling industry as it will allow you to carry as much as you want!
