How has SpaceX's Starship gone from a flying water tower in 2019 to the largest, most powerful rocket ever in just 5 years?

Here is a fun, somewhat stylized animation featuring the most important and spectacular tests SpaceX has conducted over the last 5 years.

Form Starhoppper, to the 150m tank hops, to the 10km belly flop tests, to the integrated flight tests, to orbit, and all the guaranteed excitement in between.

Thanks to all the great YouTube channels that spend so much time and effort documenting the Starship program. I could not make an animation like this without you,
