Something as big as starship. Going to Mars

Or even the moon. Should be built and stay in orbit and not launched. We don't need a rocket ship.
We need a spaceship. All sci-fi shows it being done that way. We built the ISS  like that.







that way.

They would all need to have a centrifugal Gravity system  to make a trip that long. Or we would arrive as worthless blobs.

With what it costs to send one satellite into orbit, there's probably not enough wealth on this planet to build a "starship" in space.

Your probably right, but we did build the ISS. Over a long period of time though. It would have to be a global
effort, and that's not possible in our current hostile political situation.

The ISS compared to a starship is like comparing an outhouse to a thirty room mansion.
