SpaceX’s launch from the Texas coast Thursday noticed the Starship capsule explode … making the rocket appear like a meteor bathe.
Elon shared video of the rocket’s bits and items falling again to earth … which people down in Turks and Caicos noticed once they seemed up into the sky.
The explosion occurred about 9 minutes into the launch, after it indifferent from the Tremendous Heavy Booster.
Elon has a fairly rosy outlook, posting … “Success is unsure, however leisure is assured!” Starship will finally have astronauts however nobody was on board this time.
SpaceX misplaced all communications with the rocket and mentioned, “Starship skilled a speedy unscheduled disassembly throughout its ascent burn.” Nerd speak for a rocket exploding into one million items.

The launch wasn’t all dangerous … the Tremendous Heavy booster basically flew in reverse again to Earth … returning to the launch pad, the place it was grabbed by the launch and catch tower’s chopstick arms.
Elon says SpaceX will be taught from the explosion and make changes for the following launch … and he says an oxygen/gas leak appears to be the wrongdoer right here.
Starship’s aim is to take people to Mars someday … however we’re not there but!!!
