Elon Musk's SpaceX is building a super-heavy 'Starship' with the ultimate goal of reaching Mars and making humans a multi-planetary species. Now, in a crucial step in this direction, Musk has announced the plan to build floating, super-heavy-class spaceports for launching and landing these Starships on a regular basis. He noted that the first test flights for point-to-point hypersonic travel around Earth would begin in 2-3 years.
