@Erdayastronaut @LevEakins More Accurate Word is "propellant", Rather Than "fuel". ... - Latest Tweet by Elon Musk
The latest Tweet by Elon Musk states, 'More accurate word is “propellant”, rather than “fuel”. Starship is ~78% liquid oxygen, ~22% fuel. Propellant cost is of primary importance for a fully reusable rocket, so reusable rockets want high thrust, as thrust below T/W of 1 is irrelevant.'
