Equipped with six Raptor engines, the HLS variant will utilize these powerful engines during launch, landing, and ascent phases. However, the HLS differs significantly from the standard Starship in several ways. Since it does not re-enter Earth’s atmosphere, the heat shield and flight control surfaces typical of Starship are removed. This modification reduces mass, decreasing the number of refueling tanker launches required once the spacecraft reaches orbit. Additionally, without the need for reentry systems, the methane and liquid oxygen tanks can be repurposed for other functions once the spacecraft is on the Moon.
