How SpaceX Builds One Rocket Every Week?

SpaceX plans to build 1 rocket every three days , or two rockets every week .

The company's ultimate goal is to colonize the planet Mars and build a self-sustaining city of a million people.

The launchpad is down by the water at Boca Chica Beach , Texas , while the Star Factory where those rockets are built is about 2 1/2 miles back inland at what used to be known as Star Base .

The manufacturing process that SpaceX is using inside the star factory is something that Elon has described as a linear adjacent flow, which seems to be a terminology that originates with Elon Musk .

From what I've gathered, star factory production is kind of opposite to the standard moving assembly line that was championed by Henry Ford 100 years ago , where a product moves down a conveyor belt and gradually has more and more stuff attached to it until it becomes a finished product.

SpaceX builds the top, bottom, and middle of the Starship in individual segments.

SpaceX says that the Star Factory allows them to move integration work to an earlier phase of the manufacturing process.

This Star Factory might be the first , but it certainly won't be the last.

In the long term, he could see SpaceX building 1000 Starships per year.
