Starship uses methane as fuel primarily because it offers a good balance of performance, ease of production, and reusability. While liquid hydrogen offers higher performance, methane is easier to store, especially for long-duration missions like those to Mars, and can be produced on extraterrestrial bodies like Mars using readily available resources.
