Fired together at full throttle, Crew Dragon's eight SuperDracos can move the spacecraft 0.5 miles—the length of over 7 American football fields lined up end to end—in 7.5 seconds, reaching a peak velocity of 436 mph

@Jennerator211
Wow! What will the total mass of Mk1 be?
@elonmusk
Mk1 ship is around 200 tons dry & 1400 tons wet, but aiming for 120 by Mk4 or Mk5. Total stack mass with max payload is 5000 tons.
@annerajb
Any composites planned to reduce the weight by mk4 or mk5?
@elonmusk
With rare exceptions, composites would make Starship heavier. They don’t stand up well to high temperatures, but steel does great.
