SpaceX pulled off its “chopsticks” catch of a Super Heavy rocket booster but lost the Starship spacecraft on Thursday during the vehicle’s seventh uncrewed test flight.
SpaceX made some history during a Jan. 21 Starlink satellite launch from California, landing an orbital-class rocket for the 400th time.
After exploding, the craft sent blazing debris across the sky and forced multiple aircraft flying over and near the Caribbean to divert.
Dramatic footage showing streaks of light zipping across the sky surfaced online following Elon Musk's Starship explosion over the Atlantic Ocean.
A Falcon 9 rocket carrying 27 Starlink craft is scheduled to lift off from California's Vandenberg Space Force Base Sunday, during a four-hour window that opens at 10:13 a.m. EST (1513 GMT; 7:13 a.m. local time). SpaceX will webcast the action live via its X account, beginning about five minutes before launch.
Elon Musk's space exploration business, SpaceX, got a lot of headlines late last year when it was valued at $350 billion -- a gain of more than $100 billion from its previous valuation, according
SpaceX launched its Starship mega-rocket for the seventh time. It achieve an epic booster catch but the ship was lost.
Just 11 seconds before liftoff, the launch of SpaceX Falcon 9 was postponed after officials feared a plane had strayed into its restricted airspace.
