There are advances that go in the same direction, in the same sector, going faster, further and cheaper in space in space and also on earth and in fact there is news that represents a business opportunity for this sector, because To move all this, create spaceships and for this sector to get going, money is needed, like all activities in life, obviously it has to be stable because if not, space can have an interest as exploration, as knowledge, as scientific knowledge, but if we also achieve an economic benefit, then then we will be taking a higher step.
We are talking about building lunar bases, lunar mining, for example and building large and powerful ships to take us, for example, to Mars or further away or colonize Mars as Elon Mus intends.
This is a supersonic space plane, although it is initially designed as a passenger ship, but it is practically a space shuttle, it is a Chinese project, it is capable of reaching 5000 km per hour or Max 4, that is slightly more than double the speed that the Concord had. According to the company, when this ship is developed, this ship would, for example, make the trip from Shanghai to Dubai in just one hour, the current flight from Shanghai to Dubai is 10 hours and 25 minutes.
These Supersonic planes because it is not only this one, the Supersonic planes that other companies in China and the United States are also developing, such as NASA is developing one that is also silent or at least avoids the sonic boom because those trips could be made. in 3 hours or so, but this is a real spaceship, only the StarShip project dedicated to passenger transportation would be in comparison.
Elon Musk wants a version of the StarShip precisely to do this, so that people get on his ship in San Francisco or Texas and can arrive in extremely fast and record time to Australia, London or Shanghai by means of a StarShip, but Of course, it is not only a passenger transport because there are two things here; it can also be used with a more powerful version to be able to carry humans and cargo into space.
It is not the only project that is underway and more powerful conversions would also allow us to achieve more distant objectives, there is an example in the United States, the Sierra Space ship with the Dream Chaser, it is a space plane that is like an evolved son or grandson of the NASA's space shuttle is a smaller space shuttle that will carry out its first mission to the international space station at the end of May of this year 2025. It is planned to develop a cargo version and another for crew that could transport three to seven people.
Specifically, it would not be for passengers from one point on the earth to another point on the earth but into space and directly it could transport three to seven people and it would already be a spectacular ship, by the way, this is the ship that Jeft Bezos thinks about . communicate his space hotel, one of the orbital space station projects that he wants to develop, and it would be connected to this type of ship, as some would say, it would be the ship that millionaires would use to escape from the earth that is being destroyed.
The Chinese plane has done a test, while the Sierra Space plane is going to be put into space in the month of May of this year, the Chinese plane already has its prototype, which is estimated to be ready around the year 2030. .
