And the leap from Falcon 9 to Starship will be a boon of exponential size.
There may be multiple launches of differently configured StarShips this year - FAA and EPA willing. They will have to grant permits soon or the entire NASA Artemis/SSL project is finished.
Space X Starship is going to be another game changer...
Still working the kinks out, expect there will be some spectacular failures as they do.. but once they get it right.. will be another major step forward.
