SpaceX Super Heavy Doubles the Power of the Saturn V

The speed of development is breathtaking. At twice the saturn five is will be now feasible to lob working payloads into orbit without been too excited about the load planning.  Better we will be able to do it often.

As I have postedf the next step is to build a ring station rotating around a zero gravity hub with a ring producing one g for shirt shleeve working environment.

This give us the lift power to do this.  The hub is the docking system for arriving lifters, and the cable stays allpow elevators to move loads down to the rim and one g working space.

The SpaceX Super Heavy booster that will fly to orbit should be completed within weeks. This first booster will have 29 Raptor engines and each engine will have 225 tons of thrust. The regular Super Heavy boosters will have 32 Raptor engines for 7200 tons of thrust. The Saturn V that flew men to the moon had 3580 tons of thrust.
