SpaceX New Landing Starship Method by Legs on the Sea Revealed...
In a remarkable development, a massive carrier has been spotted passing through Starbase, raising questions about its potential role in SpaceX’s future operations. Could this platform be used for transporting, landing, or even launching Starship? Let’s take a closer look.
Meanwhile, NASA’s VIPER rover, once at risk of cancellation, now appears to be back on track. At the same time, China is turning to private rocket companies to support the Tiangong space station, signaling an increasing challenge to the U.S. and SpaceX.
Join us as we explore these developments on today’s episode of Great SpaceX.

At Starbase, preparations for the next flight have been progressing rapidly. But earlier this month, something unexpected caught everyone’s attention—a massive vessel passing by the area.
At noon on February 2, the USS John F. Kennedy aircraft carrier made its way past the Starship launch site. The ship was headed for the Port of Brownsville, where it would be scrapped, marking the end of its 60-year history and four decades of service.

A bit about this legendary carrier—it was laid down in 1964, launched in 1967, and decommissioned in 2007. Its primary role was in military service, operating under the U.S. Navy. Measuring 321 meters in total length (300 meters at the waterline) and standing 59 meters tall from the mast to the waterline, it had a payload capacity ranging from 22,000 to 82,000 tons, depending on its loadout. It was powered by four steam turbines, making it a true powerhouse of naval operations.
Now, while its fate is sealed, with scrapping set to begin soon, many—including myself—can’t help but wonder: Could a platform like this be used for Starship operations? And if not this specific vessel, could SpaceX acquire a similar platform in the future for launch, landing, and transportation?
