The SpaceX Super Heavy Starship will be completely reusable. The top stage is called the Starship. The combined first and second stage will be a bit taller than the Apollo rockets.
The photos being revealed in four weeks will show the very fast progress being made by SpaceX towards getting to the revolutionary Super Heavy Starship. It used to be called the SpaceX BFR.
