A spacex falcon 9 contains ~as much fuel as a 747. Note: fuel, not fuel + oxidizer

Edit: falcon 9, not starship

Source?

I get Starship 34,000,000 kg + 12,000,000 kg vs 747 ~200,000 liters ≅ 150,000 kg, or about 1/300 th of what Starship holds.

Oh shit I'm sorry I am so wrong. I had calculated falcon 9. Thank you for the correction
