Is that possible to make a ITS interplanetary spaceship of Spacex company in game? I just want to introduce this awesome spaceship to game! (Well it is OK not to having the solar panel.) |

That would probably fit better in KSP.

It could be, like, a mars colony museum piece thrown into orbit for some last-ditch purpose. Maybe we need to fly it to Luna or something.

Given the simple shape of the ITS it's possible to make something that looks like it (which even the stock Orbital Defence Craft does), but replicating its exact specifications is a no-go in most respects. For starters, you can't make the two separate engine rings. I'd find you the screenshot of the Raptor engine replica someone made but the Steam screenshot section on the community hub is currently broken and I can only expect it to take 4-8 months to be fixed like all Steam bugs. That would probably fit better in KSP. Indeed |

Got it, SpaceX Raptor Vacuum:  Not sure what the diamond chamber is about though. Likely a stand-in for a diamond-like carbon. I've personally only heard of large production engines being made of stainless steel. |

I'm fairly certain you can squeeze more than 3.2 km/s out of lox/methane
And by god only 85 power weight ratio *cringe*

I dont understand why the Musk doesnt just use NTR's for the spaceship.
After all, the second stage's rockets only burn in space.

Probably because the paperwork he'd have to fill out to work with fissile materials would weigh more than the rocket.
