Elon Musk is speaking Thursday during the world's annual space congress, where the SpaceX CEO is expected to give updates on development of the company's monster Starship rocket.
SpaceX earlier this year made its first attempt at launching Starship into space, but the craft exploded a few minutes into the test flight.
The company is now preparing to make its second Starship flight attempt, as regulators review its application for a launch license.
Musk is speaking virtually at the 74th edition of the International Astronautical Congress (IAC), which this year is held in Baku, Azerbaijan.
The space conference comes two weeks after Azerbaijan military forces converged on the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region, to the west of Baku.
