>>11943802Sure, steel has a long way to go before it reaches it's limit, consider other steel vehicles like large ships. Seawise Giant for example (up until 1991) displaced about 650,000 tons fully loaded, it's almost 450m long and almost 25m wide. Starship/Superheavy by comparison will weigh in at a maximum up about 5600 tons, assuming a full cargo load, I can easily imagine 200-250m tall, 20m wide Earth launch spacecraft, assuming that sufficient propulsion systems can be designed to lift that much mass.
>>11943863Based LAbro, glad to know a few people still give a fuck about spaceflight. The most care for spaceflight I ever saw last semester were normies wearing NASA shirts who's eyes would glaze over instantly if I actually tried to talk rocketry with them. We're gonna make it, it isn't obvious because of the shitstorm of propaganda flooding every available piece of media but the opinions of starbucks marxists are becoming increasingly irrelevant as time goes on.
