Flight range Starship on a ballistic trajectory

[KILYAV]

I made a calculation of the Starship's flight range along a ballistic trajectory, depending on the weight of the cargo being transported.

is this the 6 engine or 9 engine version? how does that affect gravity losses?

Elon has said that aero "skipping" can extend the range to 10,000 km. any thoughts on that?

Acceleration - instant
Gravity loss - zero
Aerodynamic losses - zero
Loss on control - zero

The number of reactive motors in this calculation is irrelevant.

Sort of makes the entire topic irrelevant.

The table shows the maximum theoretical range, the real range will always be shorter and will directly depend on the number of engines.

I don't think so, because items such as acceleration, gravity etc are not theoretical.

No it doesn't.
