How any 2 stage ship has enough Delta V to reach the moon and bring two cyber trucks. Unless this proposal changes, I just don’t see it being practical for a ship of that size without any SRB or booster other than the first stage. To have all the life support systems, fuel, and vehicles fit in that first stage is ludicrous. Its one thing to make it to LEO. It’s a whole different thing for a lunar rendezvous. I’m not holding my breath until I see the specs.
