Elon Muskâs SpaceX is aiming to revolutionize global travel by proposing high-speed journeys between major cities in under an hour. Central to this vision is the Starship, a 395-foot stainless steel spacecraft. Musk, who will soon lead the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) alongside Vivek Ramaswamy, announced that his "Earth to Earth" space travel project on the Starship rocket is now feasible following Donald Trumpâs re-election.
A user on Twitter wrote, âUnder Trump's FAA, SpaceX could even get Starship Earth to Earth approved in a few years â Taking people from any city to any other city on Earth in under one hour.â
This is now possible

Originally conceived nearly a decade ago, SpaceX envisions up to 1,000 passengers boarding the worldâs most powerful rocket, the Starship, to be launched into orbit. Instead of venturing into deep space, the spacecraft would fly 'parallel' to Earth's surface, traveling to other cities, according to a report by Daily Mail.
For example, Starship could transport passengers from Los Angeles to Toronto in 24 minutes, London to New York in 29 minutes, Delhi to San Francisco in 30 minutes, and New York to Shanghai in 39 minutes.
Excitement for the potential of space travel

However, passengers would experience strong G-forces during takeoff and landing, and low gravity mid-flight would require them to remain buckled in their seats.
Several users reacted to this post showing excitement. One wrote, âPoint to point hops would change human travel forever. A long weekend on the other side of the world and then home in time for whatever.â while another commented, âExcitement for the potential of space travel. "Imagine traveling from New York to Tokyo in less than an hourâthis could change the world of travel completely.â and another wrote, âGame changerâ.
