Looks like a pic from a sci-fi movie of long ago. But this thing is real. It is the "hopper", which is a test vehicle that Spacex wants to begin making for real this year.
The test vehicle is similar to what Spacex did with its reusable booster development, which is now fully operational.
No info about when this thing begins testing.
