Astronautic launch services provider and equipment manufacturer SpaceX is busy building its next-generation launch vehicle dubbed Starship in Boca Chica, Texas. Starship will be SpaceX's platform for missions beyond low Earth orbit, including those to the Moon and to Mars. It is the company's only launch vehicle that is truly capable of delivering payloads classified under the 'super-heavy-lift' criteria by NASA, with SpaceX's other vehicle, the Falcon Heavy, managing to edge its way past the lower limit (50 tons) of the classification through a theoretical payload capacity of 63 tons.
