"SpaceX's Starship to Launch Starlab's Private Space Station into Orbit"
Starlab Space has chosen SpaceX's Starship megarocket to launch its giant steel space station, Starlab, into orbit in 2028, as it is the only rocket capable of lifting the massive structure in a single flight. The space station, a joint venture between Voyager Space and Airbus, will be fully equipped on the ground for seamless operations and will cater to space agencies, researchers, and commercial companies for various experiments. The megarocket, still in its experimental phase, has a lift capacity of 150 metric tons to low Earth orbit and is designed for full reusability.
