Possible uses for star ship

They won't be using the Raptors for the landing due to the debris they would kick up. The last 100m of the descent will be using GOX/Methane thrusters mounted far higher on the lander.

Interesting! I did not know that. I was wondering how they would avoid digging a huge hole and kicking up tons of debris.

Just fly it. We already paid for it.

Well, given the Cybertruck and other Musk projects I fully expect an electric Starship by 2035.
