After years of delays and governmental red tape, the spaceship will be ready to fly next month, according to the CEO of the company.
He said that he was in the high bay and mega bay.
The inaugural space launch of the massive Moon-bound rocket had to be delayed significantly, in large part due to the Federal Aviation Administration's environmental assessment.
A large number of requested changes to its facilities may take the company a while to implement after the assessment gave it the green light to launch its first Starship flight test.
If everything goes according to plan, the Super Heavy booster will take off from the company's launch facility in South Texas. A platform off the islands of Hawaii will be the location for the landing of the spaceship.
In a matter of years, a rocket capable of returning astronauts to the surface of the Moon is expected to be developed by the company.
The company isn't counting on a single prototype. The company will have a second stack ready to fly in August and then every month thereafter, according to Musk.
After years of delays, setbacks, and never-ending paperwork, the CEO has changed his tone.
There is a rocket that can establish permanent bases on the moon and Mars.
The FAA wants changes before the space company can launch a spaceship.
