Problems:
1. Star ship can’t leave earth orbit.
2. time to accumulate fatal radiation dose on surface of Europa: 5 hours
Yeah, Starship is nothing more than a pie in the sky. A few years ago Musk said that it would be on Mars by now, but now it can't even reach the Moon and never will since a SINGLE trip to the Moon for Starship will ultimately require up to 20 launches from Boca Chica (to refuel) to make happen, this is critical.
After the first launch, the pad took months to repair and modify.
By SpaceX's requirements, this is not acceptable since they will need to make 16 - 20 consecutive launches, every 12 days, to support a single moon mission.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
