SpaceX Starship - Humanity's Giant Leap For Making Life Multiplanetary

I am jean vladigal, president of kness, the french space agency, and president-elect of the international astronomical federation. It is my pleasure to welcome you here at the 67th International Astronomical Congress. Please join me in welcoming Elon Musk in front of Spacex. Elon Musk, a shiny new 40-story-tall megarocket, gives his first update on the spacecraft and the spacecraft is musk's multibillion-dollar bet to transport cargo and people to Mars, a
