2025 will be a pivotal year for lunar exploration as SpaceX's Starship rocket promises to revolutionize space travel and lay the groundwork for a sustainable lunar economy. With its reusable design and refueling capabilities, Starship can transport significantly more payload to the moon than traditional rockets, making lunar missions more affordable and enabling the development of profitable enterprises on the lunar surface.
This year will mark a turning point in humanity’s relationship with the moon, as we begin to lay the foundations for a permanent presence on its surface, paving the way for our natural satellite to become an industrial hub—one that will lead us to Mars and beyond. Developing a lunar economy boils down to three critical elements: the ability to get there, the means to refuel for the return journey, and profitable enterprises operating on the lunar surface.
In 2025, SpaceX plans to demonstrate Starship’s full suite of capabilities, including its ability to refuel in orbit and be reused—slashing the costs of lunar transport and making the moon more accessible than ever. This is part of an ongoing series of orbital flight tests, which began in 2023 and continued through 2024, and will do so in 2025.
