SpaceX Starship

[edit]

Could the refueling scheme proposed for SpaceX's Starship program for missions beyond low earth orbit be considered a variation of an Earth orbit rendezvous? AmigaClone (talk) 10:36, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The text could be something similar the one below:

SpaceX has proposed using on-orbit refueling to enable launching a heavy payload to interplanetary space as the spacecraft being refueled can use its tanks twice, first to reach LEO and afterwards to leave Earth orbit. Initially the on-orbit refueling will use standard Starships, but the eventual plan is to use a tanker version of the Starship second stage.[1] AmigaClone (talk) 06:37, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
