Starship: Elon Musk's SpaceX set to launch world's most powerful rocket - BBC News

The most powerful rocket ever developed is about to attempt a maiden launch.

Known as Starship, the rocket has been built by Elon Musk's SpaceX company.

It stands almost 120m (400ft) high and is designed to have almost double the thrust of any rocket in history.

Monday's uncrewed demonstration will lift off from Boca Chica in Texas, and plans to complete almost one full circuit of the globe.
