    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpaceX_Starship

    When stacked and fully fueled, Starship has a mass of approximately 5,000 t (11,000,000 lb), [c] a diameter of 9 m (30 ft) [17] and a height of 121.3 m (398 ft). [6] The rocket has been designed with the goal of being fully reusable to reduce launch costs; [18] it consists of the Super Heavy booster and the Starship upper stage [19] which are powered by Raptor and Raptor Vacuum engines.

  4. Ship measurements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ship_measurements

    Used mainly to determine the minimum water depth for safe passage of a vessel and to calculate the vessel's displacement (obtained from ship's stability tables) so as to determine the mass of cargo on board. Draft, AirAir Draft/Draught is the distance from the water line to the highest point on a ship (including antennas) while it is ...

  5. Displacement (ship) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_(ship)

    To calculate the weight of the displaced water, it is necessary to know its density. Seawater (1,025 kg/m 3 ) is more dense than fresh water (1,000 kg/m 3 ); [ 5 ] so a ship will ride higher in salt water than in fresh.

  8. Deadweight tonnage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadweight_tonnage

    Deadweight tonnage is a measure of a vessel's weight carrying capacity, not including the empty weight of the ship. It is distinct from the displacement (weight of water displaced), which includes the ship's own weight, or the volumetric measures of gross tonnage or net tonnage (and the legacy measures gross register tonnage and net register tonnage).

    In fact, UPS [1] and FedEx [2] both announced that starting 2015, shipping charges on all shipments (air and ground) will be determined by greater of the actual weight and dimensional weight of a package. Prior to this announcement, dimensional weight charges were only applicable to packages of a specific size range.
