Elon Musk's master plan for launching Starship from the sea!
Creating breakthroughs is one of the pathways to success.
Elon Musk's SpaceX has done this many times in the past, opening up many frontiers that the aerospace industry had not previously explored.
And coming up is not an exception. SpaceX will execute a unique plan to land Starship on a "virtual launch tower" at sea.
It sounds insane, but it's truly fascinating!
So, what is the virtual launch tower at sea in the plan that Elon Musk just revealed?
What advantages does having a launch and landing platform at sea bring to SpaceX's Starship?
Let’s find out on today's episode of Alpha Tech:
Elon Musk's master plan for launching Starship from the sea!
We all know that SpaceX has made significant progress with the Starship program over time. This progress has been especially evident through the increasing efficiency demonstrated in successive launches. And for the fourth launch, it will be an improvement over the previous one, showcasing further advancements in the Starship program.

In the third flight, the spacecraft experienced a collapse during atmospheric entry. Now SpaceX aims to pass through this stage and control the descent of the Starship. Another goal is to land the Super Heavy booster on a "virtual tower" in the Gulf of Mexico. This will serve as a dress rehearsal before attempting an actual return.
