>>44358It's no the same engine, the Engine they are using on Starship is the Raptor engine, an Engine developed solely for that.
Starship isn't a good design for Space tourism either(particularly not if it explodes). It's far too large and uses far too much fuel and has far too many engines for that to be economically feasible(imagine the maintenance those engines are going to need and the fuel cost). I forgot to mention last time but the Chinese are also making a rocket that will carry 150t to Low earth Orbit too, the Long March 9, it will do it using 12MN of thrust. 12! That is almost an eighth of Starship. Starship is simply an inefficient design made solely for meme value(and to attract Billion dollar government subsidies).
