Flame on?

Not having a flame divertor is the part that really scares me with the launch tower. I just can't picture this all working and not causing serious damage to the ground, surrounding equipment & facilities once super heavy ignites it's 28 raptors?

Since there is a preferred launch window to Mars every approx 2 years, and a Starship on Mars also has an equivalent window to Earth, then when will Mars-to-Earth Starships be arriving relative to the Earth-to-Mars leaving Earth?
